St. Paul's Episcopal Church (Evanston, Wyoming) Explained

St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Evanston, Wyoming is a historic parish of the Episcopal Church in the Carpenter Gothic style. The church was built in 1884–1885, and at the time was the only Protestant church in a community dominated by Mormons and Catholics. In its early history it hosted Lutherans, Methodists and Presbyterians in addition to its Episcopalian congregation.^{[1] [2]}

Construction is wood frame with drop or beveled siding. The detailing is principally plain flat material, with some evidence of Stick Style influence.^[1]
