Laurel Hill Presbyterian Church is a historic Presbyterian church near Laurinburg, Scotland County, North Carolina. The congregation was founded in 1797, and the current meeting house was completed in early 1856. It is a two-story, gable front Greek Revival style frame building. The land on which the church stands was donated by prominent landowner and politician Duncan McFarland (1759-1816). The church was used for a short period by Union General William Tecumseh Sherman as his headquarters in March 1865 prior to the Battle of Bentonville. It is the oldest church building in Scotland County.[2][3]
The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]
