Autumn Free Church With Music On History Visit To Brunton North Fife Scotland

Tour Scotland short early Autumn 4K travel video clip, with Scottish music of the Free Church on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Brunton, North Fife, Britain, United Kingdom. Remains of the former Free Church of Creich and Flisk formed under Dr J W Taylor. Records suggest a manse and church were built in 1843 and that the congregation was united with Creich Parish Church in 1929. This church stands on isolated high ground overlooking the road south of the hamlet of Brunton, with a woodland strip to the north. It was built in 1843 as a Free church. Since it fell out of use it has been rendered with concrete on the outside in order to stabilise the fabric. It consists of a main meeting area, west porch and eastern extension. The church is now roofless and is overgrown with vegetation. The Free Church was formed by Evangelicals who broke from the Church of Scotland in 1843 in protest against what they regarded as the state's encroachment on the spiritual independence of the Church. The Disruption of 1843 was a bitter, nationwide division which split the established Church of Scotland. It was larger than the previous historical secessions of 1733 or 1761. The evangelical element had been demanding the purification of the Church, and it attacked the patronage system, which allowed rich landowners to select the local ministers. Robert Candlish was influential perhaps second only to Thomas Chalmers in bringing about the Disruption.
