The present church as built in 1771-74; the town of Brooklyn was incorporated in 1786. Its construction, first proposed in 1763, was opposed for many years by local Anglicans, resulting in the construction of Trinity Church.

The building was restyled in 1845, relocating the entrance to a new tower on the side, building a full second floor at the gallery level, and replacing the box pews and pulpit. All of the interior changes were reversed in the late 20th century, restoring it to its original form. The tower, whose steeple was replaced after the New England Hurricane of 1938, was retained.

Samuel May, was a noted peace activist, education reformer, temperance crusader, supporter of women's rights, and one of the principal supporters of Prudence Crandall, the official female hero of the state of Connecticut.
