Erected in 1818 to replace
the old Kirk at Aberdour
Date Stone over entrance Date stone above front entrance says 1885.
I never did fathom out the discrepancy
between the stone and the churches history,
which says it was erected in 1818.
Inside the church Inside the church
A tale told to me was that an elderly gentleman,
a member of the congregation, used to sit
in the bottom left (in Photo) corner of the balcony
where he could see everybody in church.
If any child did not pay attention
during the service he would point at them......
Apparently the preacher had a very attentive congregation.
