history |
The parish of Arbroath St Margaret's was established in 1886 when it was disjoined from Inverbrothock, St Vigeans and Arbroath and erected as a separate parish, quoad sacra. A church had been built in the district a number of years earlier in 1879. In 1990 Arbroath St Margaret's formed a union with the charge of Arbroath Ladyloan St Columba's, under the name of Arbroath West Kirk. The kirk session sat within the Presbytery of Arbroath until 1961 when, by Act of Assembly, the Presbytery of Arbroath, the Presbytery of Forfar and the Presbytery of Brechin and Fordoun, were united under the name of the Presbytery of Angus and Mearns. Following the restructuring of the Presbyteries in 1976, it became part of the Presbytery of Angus. |
