Roadside Marker #60

Sudley Methodist Church
(Rt. 234, 8 miles north of Manassas)

The site for the first church, a small brick building, was donated by Landon Carter of Woodland in 1822. During the Battles of Manassas (Bull Run), it was used as a field hospital by both the North and the South, but it was so badly damaged that it was razed and a frame church built in its place. The second church was struck by lightning in 1918 and burned. The present church was dedicated in 1922. The annual Sudley church bazaar has been a gathering place for friends and neighbors for decades.
Erected 1983
