The First Baptist Church of Scituate is a historic Baptist church building at 656 Country Way in Scituate, Massachusetts. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure with eclectic Victorian styling, including quoining at the corners and bracketed eaves. It has a three-part round-arch window in the front-facing gable end, with a square tower rising to an octagonal spire set to its left. The church was built in 1869-70 as the second sanctuary for a Baptist congregation founded in 1815.[2]
The church and its associated parsonage were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2015.[1]
