Little Brick Church, also known as Virginia's Church and William Tompkins Church, is a historic church in Cedar Grove, Kanawha County, West Virginia. It was built in 1853, and is a small brick structure on a stone foundation. The building was nearly square when built, but lengthened within a few years. It features a louvered octagonal cupola, with finial. The Chapel was occupied during the American Civil War by both sides. Originally a non-denominational chapel, it was for some time used exclusively by a Methodist congregation.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.[1]
