 The church was extensively refurbished in 1774 and again in 1891 forming the edifice we see today.Only the clock tower and some surrounding masonry remains from the original 1596 church; the outline of the original west gable end can still be seen inside the roof.There was a major rift in the Church of Scotland and, in 1843, many of the congregation left the church, then known by its original name, Preston Church.
