Longstreet Church, founded in 1758 by the people of Longstreet Community, now sits on land owned by Fort Bragg in Fayetteville. The church was active continuously until 1895, and then sporadically until 1918, when the U.S. government purchased the land, with the provision that the church and its cemetery would be protected and preserved. The church is all that remains of the once-thriving Scottish community of Longstreet.
