The former Dayville Congregational Church is located in the Dayville National Register district in Killingly, CT. The Greek Revival church, constructed in 1849, was being used as a real estate office. This building collapsed practically onto Route 101 and blocked off this busy thoroughfare for a number of hours while it was moved from the roadway. This church had two beautiful Greek Revival fluted columns with bases and capitals.

These wooden columns are approximately 16-feet tall with a slight taper. Luckily, they survived the collapse with just some scrapes. We also recovered many hand hewn chestnut beams of various sizes and fantastic color. These salvaged timbers will be great for mantel beams. A few could be used as structural pieces, such as long exposed beams.

We also salvaged a few long oak beams with great color as well as some narrow (7" wide), hand-planed and heavily painted clear white pine boards from the exterior.
