Strathblane Parish Church

The church, by architect John Brash, was ready for use at the start of 1804. It replaced an early-eighteenth-century church, itself the successor of an earlier building. Chapter VIII of J G Smith's "The Parish of Strathblane" (1886) gives more details, and Appendix I of the same work gives a complete listing of the memorial inscriptions that were to be seen in the kirkyard at that time.
