The Williford Methodist Church is a historic church at the northwest corner of Ferguson and Hail Streets on the outskirts of Williford, Arkansas. It is a single-story wood frame structure, with a gable roof and stone foundation. It has Gothic Revival pointed-arch windows and a small belfry with a pyramidal roof. The interior contains original pews and pulpit. Built c. 1910, the building is locally notable for its distinctive vernacular Gothic Revival architecture, and as the first purpose-built church building in the community.[2]

The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.[1]
