Rocky Spring Presbyterian Church is a historic Presbyterian church in Letterkenny Township, Franklin County, Pennsylvania. It was built in 1794, and is a 1 1/2-story, four by six bay, brick Georgian style building. It measures 48 feet by 60 feet, and has a gable roof. The interior of the church includes two ten-plate stoves; brick aisle ways; a crude ladder leading to a loft; and wooden pews that are long and narrow with high straight-backed seating. The ends of the pews are carved with the names of the previous occupants identifying the military ranks they held during the Revolutionary War. Rocky Springs Church was a pay for pew church that required members to sign a financial agreement between the trustees of the church and the pew holders requiring an annual fee for occupancy of the pew. The Church's pulpit is circular in form and positioned above the pews giving the speaker full view of the congregation. Access is gained by a staircase. Above the pulpit is an oval-shaped canopy or sounding board.
