SECOND RINDGE MEETING HOUSEThis Meeting House was an outgrowth of the time when Proprietors of the town were responsible for the encouragement of the religion. It was built in 1976 when church and state were intertwined.Until 1819 , regardless of denomination and belief , residents were considered members of this parish and their tax money supported the minister. In 1839 the town became owner of this endifice and the church society its tenant and this arrangement remains today. This building of simple colonial architecture still embraces some of the religious and civil affairs of this community and stands as a monument to pure democracy. Second Rindge Meeting House (and Cemetery) was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on October 05, 1979.
