Church Street is a historic street in Yarmouth, Maine, United States. It runs for about 425 feet (142 yd) from West Elm Street in the east to Hillside Street in the west. It was one of the first streets laid out after the town's population moved inland from the Broad Cove area in the 19th century. Several of its buildings are homes dating to the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
The street is named for the Old Baptist Meetinghouse, which stands opposite its western end. It was completed in 1796, and is now listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
