The First Congregational Church of East Haven (also known as Old Stone Church) is a historic church at 251 Main Street in East Haven, Connecticut. It is a red sandstone structure, 2-1/2 stories in height, set on a large grassy lot overlooking the town center. It was built in 1772-74 by George Lancraft, a local builder, and is one of Connecticut's few surviving pre-Revolutionary churches. Its design follows the pattern of the period, with the main entrance on the long side, with the tower at one of the short gable ends.
The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
