 The building was expanded in 1835 to the present size.Heavy use took a toll on the structure such that in 1842 it was said to be in "ruinous condition" A new building was erected about a quarter mile west and the current building fell into disuse aside from occasional Sunday religious services.In 1845 some parishioners from St. David's Church in nearby Radnor, Pennsylvania proposed instituting Episcopal services in the building but were rebuffed by Baptists who claimed prior rights to the site.
