history |
The church of Meigle, which had to be entirely re-built in 1870 having been destroyed by fire in the previous year, was dedicated to St Peter and was formerly a prebend of Dunkeld. In 1931, following the union of the Church of Scotland and the United Free Church in 1929 Meigle parish church was joined with the former United Free Church congregation of Meigle South. After the union the parish church continued in use as the place of worship and the former United Free church was sold. In 1958 the church had to be renovated after being damaged for a second time by fire and in 1981 Meigle united with the charges of Ardler and Kettins under the name of Ardler, Kettins and Meigle. The kirk session sat within the Presbytery of Meigle, until the restructuring of the presbyteries in 1976, when it became part of the Presbytery of Dunkeld and Meigle. |
