The congregation of the Presbyterian Church of the Forks of Brandywine was organized in 1736 after getting permission to build a church in 1735 in present-day West Brandywine Township. The Great Schism of 1741 divided the congregation until 1758. A new church built in 1761 was named Manor Meetinghouse. In 1816 a new post office was named Brandwine Manor and that name was applied to the church, also.
