Church History

The church is marked as a UP Church on maps from 1854, but is no longer visible by around 1940.

From Small's History of the UP Congregations 1733 - 1900, it appears that the church originated as a United Secession Church around 1840. "Worship was held at first in a malt barn, and then another building was fitted up with over 250 sittings, which continued to be the place of meeting till within the last few years."  Small further notes that "On Thursday, 28th June 1893, a new church, with sittings for 250, and erected along with the manse at a cost of £2000, was opened by Dr Thomson of Broughton Place, Edinburgh". (Location of this 2nd building TBC)
