Kehukee Primitive Baptist Church is a historic Primitive Baptist church building in Halifax County, North Carolina located about a mile (1.5 km) south of Scotland Neck off NC Route 125. It was built in 1872 and is a simple gable-front frame structure subsequently sheathed in weatherboard. A Gothic Revival style frame tower was added in 1901. Also on the property is a church cemetery established in 1889.
The Kehukee congregation's previous meeting house, at a different site, was the location in 1769 for the foundation of the Kehukee Baptist Association of churches from North Carolina and southern Virginia, and in 1827 of the Primitive Baptist Kehukee Declaration issued by the association. The 1872 site, including the cemetery, was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
