1. Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church - Church Privies Marker
The Church Privies are located behind the church. There are mens and womens, each with three toilets. The toilets are original, and are made of solid metal, with attached closable lids. According to the wording on the lids, they were manufactured in Montgomery, Alabama. The use of the privies was discontinued in the 1970's when indoor restroom facilities were added to the church.
Erected by the Shiloh Community Restoration Foundation.
