The Prinsep Street Presbyterian Church (Chinese: 布连拾街长老会磐石堂) is a Presbyterian Church in Singapore. It is located at Prinsep Street in the Rochor Planning Area, within the Central Area in Singapore's central business district.
The present church was constructed in 1930. Founded in 1843, it was then known as the Malay Chapel. It was the first Straits Chinese church in Singapore. The chapel was replaced with the present Romanesque style building and dedicated in 1931. The Singapore Boys’ Brigade was founded here.
In 1839, a Presbyterian minister of the London Missionary Society, Reverend Benjamin Peach Keasberry, started an elite boarding school for Malay boys in Rochor, with an attached printing press. Some of his pupils were thought to have been of royal descent.
