history |
The parish of Ladybank was disjoined from that of Collessie on the 5th June 1882 and erected quoad sacra, ministry of the congregation is recorded from that same year, in the person of Robert Hagart Kerr. The established church of Ladybank became termed in later years Ladybank Kerr Memorial and in 1930, following the 1929 union of the Church of Scotland and United Free Church, Kerr Memorial was joined with the former United Free Church congregation of Ladybank St Mary's. The two united under the name of Ladybank and after the union the former Kerr Memorial church remained in use as the place of worship. A later union followed in 1968 with Collessie, to form the charge of Collessie and Ladybank and in 1983 the parish of Howe of Fife was established by the uniting of Collessie and Ladybank with Cults and Kettle. The kirk session sat within the presbytery of Cupar until the restructuring of the Presbyteries in 1976, when it became part of the Presbytery of St Andrew's. |
