Admin history

Church of Scotland quoad sacra parish in Shetland. The parishes of Dunrossness, Fair Isle, Sandwick and Cunningsburgh were united in the 17th century as Dunrossness. In 1826 a parliamentary church was opened in Sandwick and in 1870 this disjoined from Dunrossness as the quoad sacra parish of Sandwick and Cunningsburgh. The Church of Scotland kirk session for Sandwick sat within the presbytery of Lerwick and the synod of Shetland.
