Forks of the Brandywine Presbyterian Church

The American Gothic stone church building stands prominently on Horseshoe Pike, featuring traditional Presbyterian architectural elements and detailed stonework throughout its structure.

The congregation established their first log meetinghouse in 1734, with the current church building completed in 1875 at a total construction cost of 21,000 dollars.

The congregation maintains extensive historical records dating to the 18th century, including marriage registers, baptismal logs, and administrative documents preserved at the Presbyterian Historical Society.

The church holds regular Sunday services at 10:30 AM and offers various ministries, including the Kingdom Kids program for children aged 5 through second grade.

Benjamin Franklin and David Rittenhouse contributed funds to restore the previous stone church building after its destruction by fire in 1785.
