Holy Trinity Anglican Church, Greenville

Holy Trinity Anglican Church stands as a bastion of English heritage, nestled in the historic downtown area of Greenville. The church's architectural design and traditional worship services harken back to its roots, offering a glimpse into a bygone era. Constructed from stone with the appearance of an ancient edifice, Holy Trinity Anglican Church exudes a timeless charm. Topped with crosses and boasting a solid granite structure, the church's distinguished presence adds to the rich tapestry of the Hampton-Pinckney Historic District.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the church building was erected in 1914, embracing the traditional English Gothic style. Its walls, crafted from solid granite, and roof adorned with slate, speak to the craftsmanship of yesteryears. Originally built by Saint James Episcopal Church, Holy Trinity Anglican Church found its current home when a group of Traditionalist Episcopalians formed a new congregation in 1967. With a commitment to preserving the church's heritage and traditions, the parish purchased the former Saint James Episcopal Church building, ensuring its continued legacy.

Today, Holy Trinity Anglican Church remains a cherished landmark in downtown Greenville, serving as a place of worship and a symbol of enduring faith. Its reverence for English heritage, reflected in its architecture and worship practices, creates an atmosphere of reverence and spiritual connection.
