Title

North Queensferry Parish Church

Description

Until the late nineteenth century the people of North Queensferry worshipped in Inverkeithing or Dunfermline. The first parish church was built in the village in 1878, belonging to the Free Church. The congregation joined the United Free Church in 1900, and the Church of Scotland in 1929, but by 1962 the church was believed to be beyond repair and was demolished. By 1963 a new church was open and in use. By that time the charge was already shared with St John’s in Inverkeithing (1958), and now, since the union of St John’s and St Peter’s in 2006, with what is known as Inverkeithing Parish Church.
