Rehoboth Beach historian Paul Lovett has mounted models of Scott’s Chapel and its adjacent cottage to his diorama of 1910 Rehoboth Avenue.
Scott’s Chapel was built in 1880. It was largely financed by Baltimore magnate James E. Hooper, a descendent owner of the Baltimore firm that controlled the duck cotton industry. Duck cotton was used as sailcloth for merchant sailing ships of the time and for such things as canvas for oil paintings.
Hopper had his summer cottage on the Boardwalk at Virginia Avenue. He and a friend built Scott’s Chapel as a nondenominational meeting place for Rehoboth’s summer residents. The structure was named after the beloved Bishop Scott who was prominent in early Rehoboth and who preached the first sermon at Rehoboth’s newly built campgrounds tabernacle in July 1873.
