Brick Presbyterian Church is a historic Presbyterian church in Perry, Wyoming County, New York. The Gothic Revival-style church was built in 1909 of randome ashlar Pennsylvania limestone. It consists of a central octagonal structure housing the sanctuary surrounded by wings that give the structure a cruciform appearance. It features a massive square crenellated bell tower. It is a product of the Buffalo architectural firm of Green & Wicks.[1]

The bricks for this church were made by James Russell Webster, whose property is also on the National Historic Registry.[2]
