Old Photograph Parish Church Auchterderran Fife Scotland

Old photograph of the Parish Church in Auchterderran, Fife, Scotland. This Scottish church is on a low hill, which slopes to the south down towards the Derran Burn, on a corner site between Woodend Road and Balgreggie Road. Originally there was a large rectangular medieval church on the site, dedicated to St Fothad, to which was added a transeptal aisle in the 17th century. The present church was built in 1789 using material from the medieval church. The church is built of sandstone and has a slate roof. In 1891 William Constable added a small south nave which had three galleries, and replaced the 18th century windows with lancet versions. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
