history |
In 1735 the charge of Hilton was joined with Whitsome to form the united session of Whitsome and Hilton. The Hilton Parish Church ceased to be used after this time and was left to fall into a ruinous state and Whitsome parish church was rebuilt in 1803. Hilton was later dropped from the name of the parish and in 1955 Whitsome established a link with Ladykirk under the ministry of Rev A. Pringle, minister at Ladykirk. A further linkage later followed in 1978 with Fogo and Swinton with Leitholm. The kirk session sat within the Presbytery of Chirnside and later of Duns. |
