Old photograph of the Parish Church in Liff, Angus, Scotland. The present Liff Church, built in 1839, was designed by William Macdonald Mackenzie, born 1797, died 1856, City Architect of Perth, Perthshire, who was said by his obituarist to have designed between forty and fifty churches. There were at least two previous churches near the present site. The earlier of these was in constant need of repair according to 1674 Kirk Session minutes. This may have been the medieval church that was dedicated to the Virgin Mary and appropriated to the Abbey of Scone.
