Clarkson Chapel, a mid-19th-century wooden chapel in Clermont, New York, exemplifies the Carpenter Gothic style. Built in 1860 by Levinus Clarkson, a local landowner connected to the prominent Livingston family through marriage, the chapel served a congregation of dissident Episcopalians. Originally situated on the grounds of Clarkson's estate, Knollwood, the building now stands on New York State Route 9G. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983, it became a contributing property to the Hudson River Historic District when that area achieved National Historic Landmark status in 1992. The chapel has since passed from Livingston family ownership to Columbia County.
