New Hempstead Presbyterian Church

New Hempstead Presbyterian Church
New Hempstead, New York (NY), US
The New Hempstead Presbyterian Church is located at the intersection of New Hempstead (Rockland County Route 80) and Old Schoolhouse roads in New Hempstead, New York, United States. It is a wood frame Federal style building from the 1820s, the third church on the site.

When its congregation was established in 1734, it was the first by a group of English settlers in New York west of the Hudson River. The building is the second oldest extant church in the county. In 1863 a school was built on nearby property and used by the local school district; it later became the oldest continuously-used public school building in the county. In 1977 the church and school, along with some other outbuildings, were listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the English Church and Schoolhouse.
