Spring Hill Primitive was part of the Big Harpeth United Primitive Baptist Association of Tennessee. On August 31, 1872, the Association convened at Spring Hill Primitive. This means the congregation dates back to between 1866 and 1872. The construction of the church is suspected to have been around 1900.
