Beneath the church currently on the site, the foundations of the original church have been found.

Within the church are tributes to Pocahontas and John Smith.

Here is the church, to the right of the statue.

Pocahontas' statue it outside the settlement walls, toward the woods.

Nearby are the remains of the New World's first blown-glass factory.

Glassmakers now work on the site and give demonstrations.
