THE BOOK OF FALMOUTH edited by Mary Lou Smith discusses the building of The West Falmouth Meeting House on page 440: "In 1703 Sandwich records complain that 'Falmouth Friends are remiss in attending Monthly Meeting.' Perhaps in response to this situation, they were permitted, after 1709, to have their own business meetings to discuss matters which representatives might then bring to the home meeting in Sandwich. The first West Falmouth Meeting house was built in 1720, across the street from the graveyard, on what was then the main road, which ran along the hillside between the two present-day main roads, Route 28 and Route 28A. This Meeting House was a one-story structure with a pyramidal-shaped hopper roof. At its apex was a hole to let out the smoke from a charcoal fire used for heating. The short list of those who contributed £36 to build this building (Sandwich Friends added £8) includes Allens, Bowermans, Harpers, Giffords, Robinsons Swifts and Wings."
