Anderson Presbyterian Church is a historic church at 899 Steam Mill Ferry Road in the Madison Hall community of rural Madison County, Tennessee.

The gable-front church was built in 1894 for the benefit of Presbyterians in the local area who often were unable to cross the river to get to Jackson to attend church.[2] The building had no alterations until the 1950s, when an addition was built and new light fixtures and other modern features were installed.[2][3]

The church was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2007 for its local architectural importance.[3]
