Description Image shows the Pine Valley Church built by Ebenezer Bryce in 1868. This church has an interesting story. It is one of the oldest churches still used in Utah. Bryce was actually a shipbuilder, not an architect, and the attic of the building is essentially a ship's hull, turned upside down. Bryce said of the church, "If a flood should come, it would float and if a wind came strong enough to blow it over, it would still never crash to pieces."
