Additional parking can be found at the old Town Hall on South Road.

The main entrance to First Parish (for Sunday services and other ceremonies in the Sanctuary) is through the green doors facing the town common on The Great Road. An accessible entrance (and our main entrance during the week) with the elevator is the entry on the right side of the building – on Elm Street. In addition, on Sundays only, the door on the South Street side by the Memorial Garden is open for access to the church.
