Just inside the fence here at 1745 Victoria Park Avenue on the grounds of this church is a Scarborough Historical Society plaque. Here's what it says:
Erected in 1848 by the Rev. Wm. Stewart Darling and the Anglican families of the Wexford area of Scarborough, the site of the church and the cemetery was originally a private burial plot of the Parkin family. The church is a perfectly scaled model of the first minister's home church in England. It is now the oldest surviving Anglican church building in Scarborough.
