A photo taken in 1903 of the inside of the First Presbyterian Church. The Church was located in the 800 block of Court Street at the time. In 1952, the Church moved to a new facility on V.E.S. Road. The old building became the First Methodist Church and later became office space for the Lynchburg Police Department. At that time it merged with Chestnut Hill United Methodist.
