Round Plain Church

 

A small stone church near Wishart, Saskatchewan.

The site of the community cemetery (1884) was also chosen for the site of the new church in 1888.

Members of the Anglican, Presbyterian and Methodist congregations all had a hand in the construction.

Round Plain Church is the oldest surviving church in the R.M of Emerald.

This design was typical of stone churches in the, then, Northwest Territories.
