崇明寺建成后，因其位于縣城和百家(jia)巖正(zheng)中(zhong)，且是(shi)縣城去(qu)百家(jia)巖的(de)必經之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)處，因此無論善男(nan)信女還是(shi)文人(ren)騷客，慕名(ming)前(qian)往百家(jia)巖的(de)，無不(bu)先到崇明寺或(huo)先禮(li)佛，或(huo)作小憩，又因這里風景絕佳，由此崇明寺之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)名(ming)大噪(zao)，遂成一處名(ming)剎(cha)兼名(ming)勝(sheng)(sheng)。張琬碑(bei)(bei)稱其“負太(tai)行(xing)而(er)揖(yi)嵩少，東(dong)(dong)連(lian)乎蘇門(men)(men)、百泉之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)幽勝(sheng)(sheng)，西(xi)接乎濟水、盤谷之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)清雅，風氣(qi)淳淑(shu)，民物(wu)繁伙，加以(yi)水竹之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)明秀(xiu)，村(cun)落之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)旁午，稻塍蔬圃，雞犬相聞，故高(gao)人(ren)勝(sheng)(sheng)士聯(lian)鏕并駕，游詠不(bu)乏，盛境(jing)振名(ming)于懷衛”，贊其為(wei)“實中(zhong)土之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)杰區，空門(men)(men)之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)福地(di)”，而(er)何瑭碑(bei)(bei)則記其“北(bei)負太(tai)行(xing)，東(dong)(dong)連(lian)百泉，西(xi)去(qu)海蟾(chan)宮(gong)里許(xu)，宮(gong)之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)前(qian)有泉涌(yong)出，下流寺側，蓋寧城之(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)(zhi)勝(sheng)(sheng)地(di)也”。
崇明(ming)(ming)寺(si)代(dai)有修(xiu)葺(qi)，有明(ming)(ming)確記載的(de)有：至正年(nian)(nian)(nian)間(jian)(jian)，住持(chi)僧(seng)因資、因全重(zhong)(zhong)修(xiu)。因資俗姓(xing)(xing)(xing)霍氏(shi)，河內人(ren)(ren)，出家(jia)于(yu)(yu)河內天(tian)圣院(yuan)；因全，俗姓(xing)(xing)(xing)師氏(shi)，清華(hua)人(ren)(ren)，為(wei)因資師弟，因資圓(yuan)寂后(hou)繼任本寺(si)住持(chi)。此(ci)次重(zhong)(zhong)修(xiu)，由(you)(you)當(dang)(dang)時的(de)翰林(lin)文字同(tong)知兼國(guo)史院(yuan)編修(xiu)官(guan)奉議大(da)夫禮部(bu)郎(lang)中(zhong)張琬為(wei)之(zhi)作(zuo)記。明(ming)(ming)代(dai)成化年(nian)(nian)(nian)間(jian)(jian)，僧(seng)官(guan)祥(xiang)俊及其弟子妙(miao)淳、妙(miao)慶重(zhong)(zhong)修(xiu)，由(you)(you)當(dang)(dang)時的(de)河南(nan)按察使楊徽為(wei)之(zhi)作(zuo)記；嘉(jia)靖二年(nian)(nian)(nian)（1523年(nian)(nian)(nian)），由(you)(you)當(dang)(dang)地(di)(di)耆老杭鑒(jian)及其子杭彪州捐(juan)銀一(yi)百兩及當(dang)(dang)地(di)(di)信士(shi)(shi)共同(tong)資助(zhu)，本寺(si)住持(chi)廣堅、清應等(deng)主持(chi)重(zhong)(zhong)修(xiu)，歷時兩年(nian)(nian)(nian)半(ban)，于(yu)(yu)嘉(jia)靖四年(nian)(nian)(nian)十月(yue)完工，重(zhong)(zhong)建雷音(yin)殿(dian)五間(jian)(jian)、伽藍殿(dian)三間(jian)(jian)、東西方丈六間(jian)(jian)。此(ci)次重(zhong)(zhong)修(xiu)，由(you)(you)當(dang)(dang)時的(de)禮部(bu)右侍郎(lang)何瑭(tang)為(wei)之(zhi)作(zuo)記。另(ling)(ling)據道光《修(xiu)武縣(xian)志(zhi)·寺(si)觀(guan)(guan)附》記載，百家(jia)巖寺(si)曾一(yi)度傾廢，其僧(seng)眾(zhong)皆居于(yu)(yu)五里源之(zhi)崇明(ming)(ming)寺(si)，由(you)(you)此(ci)可見當(dang)(dang)時崇明(ming)(ming)寺(si)規模(mo)之(zhi)盛。但至道光年(nian)(nian)(nian)間(jian)(jian)，雖然(ran)該寺(si)頗具“花木竹柏之(zhi)勝”，但已墻垣(yuan)頹敗，寺(si)僧(seng)寥落(luo)無存(cun)。其后(hou)有無重(zhong)(zhong)修(xiu)，不得而知。2001年(nian)(nian)(nian)，五里源村有心(xin)之(zhi)士(shi)(shi)根據當(dang)(dang)地(di)(di)老年(nian)(nian)(nian)人(ren)(ren)的(de)回(hui)憶(yi)，繪制了民國(guo)時期的(de)崇明(ming)(ming)寺(si)示(shi)意圖(tu)(tu)，閱(yue)圖(tu)(tu)可知，當(dang)(dang)年(nian)(nian)(nian)的(de)崇明(ming)(ming)寺(si)有山門一(yi)間(jian)(jian)，東西廊廡各五間(jian)(jian)，中(zhong)佛(fo)(fo)殿(dian)三間(jian)(jian)，大(da)佛(fo)(fo)殿(dian)五間(jian)(jian)，中(zhong)佛(fo)(fo)殿(dian)東南(nan)有鐘樓一(yi)座，大(da)佛(fo)(fo)殿(dian)東側有觀(guan)(guan)音(yin)殿(dian)一(yi)間(jian)(jian)，觀(guan)(guan)音(yin)殿(dian)還有地(di)(di)下室，另(ling)(ling)有東西配(pei)殿(dian)各五間(jian)(jian)，最后(hou)為(wei)僧(seng)房十一(yi)間(jian)(jian)。當(dang)(dang)地(di)(di)百姓(xing)(xing)(xing)傳說，廟中(zhong)大(da)殿(dian)梁上雖然(ran)長年(nian)(nian)(nian)無人(ren)(ren)打掃，卻(que)從無積塵(chen)，也無本寺(si)一(yi)奇(qi)。
據現在主持(chi)募修的(de)五里源信徒郝小(xiao)具(ju)說，此寺(si)在日偽時期被徹底拆(chai)除，用(yong)于修建(jian)(jian)本村(cun)炮(pao)樓和(he)碉堡。上世紀(ji)六十年代初，國家加強基層醫療衛生(sheng)(sheng)機構建(jian)(jian)設，五里源公(gong)社(she)在原崇(chong)明寺(si)的(de)廢址上興建(jian)(jian)了(le)公(gong)社(she)衛生(sheng)(sheng)院(yuan)(yuan)，原來寺(si)院(yuan)(yuan)的(de)碑刻也散落各處(chu)。十一屆三中全會后，宗(zong)教政策得(de)到落實，當地善男信女開始(shi)籌劃重建(jian)(jian)崇(chong)明寺(si)。九十年代后期，信眾集資購買(mai)了(le)鄉衛生(sheng)(sheng)院(yuan)(yuan)后院(yuan)(yuan)作為安(an)神之所，原碑刻文物也逐漸(jian)被找回(hui)，其中就有著名的(de)唐代佛頂尊(zun)勝陀羅尼經(jing)幢和(he)北(bei)宋(song)魯遷(qian)之詩碣。
