Restoration and Renovation, Brewster Meeting House, Brewster, MA

The Brewster Meeting House is a historic white-clapboard church with a steeple and clock. Cape Associates carried out its restoration and renovation, keeping the character of a building that has long been a landmark in the town.

The exterior shows a tall, narrow tower with a clock face and louvered belfry, and tall arched windows along the sides. A fieldstone wall runs beside the property, and mature trees surround the building. A set of green doors marks the entry below the clock tower.

Inside, the sanctuary has rows of white box-style pews with dark trim, a raised pulpit area and a brass chandelier. Tall windows with multiple small panes bring in natural light.

An organ case with gilded pipes stands at the front, with carved white trim above. The painted walls and woodwork are kept in light, clean colors, so the architecture remains the focus of the room.
