The Good Hope Baptist Church, constructed circa 1857 near Eastover in Richland County, is one of the few surviving antebellum churches in Lower Richland County and an important example of rural Greek Revival religious architecture. The simple frame, temple-form building is sheathed in weatherboard and rests on a brick foundation. Its principal south elevation features a full-width pedimented portico supported by four paneled square columns and pilasters, with a central entrance flanked by six-over-six sash windows. Smaller windows at the gallery level illuminate the interior, while the overall symmetry and restrained classical detailing reflect the architectural ideals of the mid-nineteenth century.

Good Hope began as a branch of Congaree Baptist Church and was established to provide a more convenient place of worship for members living farther from the parent congregation. The church was reportedly built by John McLauchlin on land donated by James H. Seay, and its surviving interior retains an unusual original slave gallery, providing important evidence of the social and religious organization of the antebellum rural community. A two-story frame addition constructed circa 1950 extends the rear of the building while repeating the proportions and materials of the original structure. Good Hope Baptist Church was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1986 for its architectural and religious significance.
