In 1858 the Parish of Lochryan was disjoined from that of Balantrae and erected quoad sacra, the church of this parish had been built at Cairnryan a number of years prior in 1841. In 1930 the fomer United Free congregation of Cairnryan united with Lochryan. And in 1941 ta further union took place with Glenapp to form the session of Lochryan and Glenapp and following the local union both parish churches remained in use for public worship. In 1985 however the union between Glenapp and Lochryan was dissolved in favour of a union between Lochryan and Inch, under the name of Inch. The kirk session sat within the Presbytery of Stranraer until 1963 when, by Act of Assembly, the Presbytery of Wigtown and the Presbytery of Stranraer were united together under the name of the Presbytery of Wigtown and Stranraer. |
