Farnham Church, also known as North Farnham Episcopal Church, is a historic Episcopal church located in Farnham, Richmond County, Virginia. It is the parish church of North Farnham Parish, created in 1683.
The church was built in 1737 in the Colonial style, and renovated in 1921 in the Georgian Revival style. As it stands, the church is a one story, cruciform-shaped brick building with a gable roof. The interior includes a barrel-vaulted ceiling and a Georgian-style pulpit and altarpiece. Due to the church being abandoned and gutted multiple times, the brick walls are the only surviving aspect of the original 1737 building. The dimensions are 63.8 ft. by 58.2 ft.
Farnham Church was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
