The Oldham Methodist Church is a historic church at Main Street and Epton Avenue in Oldham, South Dakota, USA. It was built in 1914 and was added to the National Register in 1987. [1]

It has an L-shaped plan with a bell tower rising from the intersection of its two gables. It was deemed notable as a "rare, practically uncorrupted example" of "the L-shaped form in its pure state. Other original features include Gothic arched window and door openings, decorative bargeboard, hardwood interior appointments and furniture, lighting fixtures, and a pressed-metal ceiling." [2]
