North Church seeks grants for 2 million renovation
LCHIP officials say North Church in Portsmouth is eligible for preservation grants as it seeks a $2 million renovation begun after 1999. Church members face funding hurdles, requiring outside help and public support to restore the aging landmark built in 1855 with a 1925 white steeple. The project faces deed restrictions and limited public-use space, while historical notes and timbers reveal a long, storied past.
