The Cedar Hill Church and Cemeteries are located in historic Rockbridge County, Virginia. The small log church, which also served as a schoolhouse, was built in 1874 evoking the history of Rockbridge County's African American community. The land was given by a white farmer named John Replogle and transferred to" Trustees for the Colored Baptist Congregation" A cemetery was established behind the church, marked today by a scattering of field stone memorials. Because of the rocky ground, a new cemetery was laid out at a separate location around 1890 and is still in use. The Cedar Hill congregation was formed shortly after the Civil War. It consisted of African Americans that basically worked and lived on white-owned farms. The meetings were held in a log dwelling southwest of the present church. Later, the congregation met under a large oak tree that stood approximately one and a half miles west of the present church. Cedar Hill's oak tree meeting-place was similar to the brush arbor churches that many freedman congregations established in Virginia following the Civil war as temporary shelter. It is said that many members were buried near that oak tree that was called as the "Gospel Tree". The tree was destroyed by lightning around 1890, but the stump is still visible and a limb from it is kept at the present church as a historic memento.

By the late 1920s, the church began to lose many of its key members. Most moved to the nearest city, Lexington, where there was better opportunities for work and education. After 1939, the church sat idle for 26 years until a yearly homecoming was established in 1965. The annual homecomings are held at the church on the third Sunday in August.

Cedar Hill is acknowledged as an important site and illustration the African American heritage of rural Rockbridge County, Va. The Church is registered with the United States Department of the Interior National Park Service and National Register of Historic Places.
