This is the Perryville Baptist Church. The house beside it has now been demolished and a parking lot is there. The clock on the corner was erected in memory of Arthur Coyle who owned a funeral home across the street from the church. Directly across the street is Perryville Furniture Mart which is now out of business. That street is referred to as Mitchellsburg Rd. The Gulf sign refers to a station owned by Arthur Lee "Chick" Crain. This property has been enlarged and made into a mini mart. I lived in a little house beside this station for 8 years.
