Never a large gathering place, in 1885 the church was renewed by its few remaining members. Last mention of the church appears in the early part of the 20th century, when William Durnall was appointed to preach the West Grove–Somerset circuit. The church sat long abandoned. Around 2005, a boy scout erected a fence and sign around the cemetery here and reset the remaining markers.
