Churchville Presbyterian Church is a historic Presbyterian church located at Churchville, Harford County, Maryland. It consists of three harmoniously designed sections: the original one-story, four by three bay, gable-roofed brick building dated to 1820; the three-story, restrained Italianate, brick bell tower added in 1870; and the low, one-story brick church hall and office added in 1950. Located adjacent is a sequestered 4.5-acre (1.8 ha) graveyard with stones dating back to 1819. The community of Churchville, which surrounds the church, grew up around and took its name from the structure.[2]

The 1870 addition of an Italianate, brick belltower was designed by architect J. Crawford Nielson of the firm Niernsee and Neilson.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1]
