Fettercairn Parish Church - Places of Worship in Scotland
West Mearns Parish Church
Fettercairn Parish Church dates to the start of the 19th century and is built partially on the site of a medieval original, dedicated to St Mark the Evangelist. The church is situated in an oval graveyard in the centre of the village of Fettercairn.

The medieval church was built some time in the 15th century and was a long, narrow building with a burial aisle attached. The memorial to Minister Mr Foote, in the graveyard, apparently marks the spot where the medieval church's pulpit stood. This church was demolished in 1803 to make way for the current church. The earliest stone in the graveyard is dated 1615.
History of the Project
At the heart of the project lies a database inventory of Scottish church sites, www.scottishchurches.org.uk. Although now much broader in scope, the inventory was originally conceived in the mid 1980s to provide a basic level of information on churches and places of Christian worship in Scotland, from the origins of Christianity to the present day.

Now it has been expanded to include places used for worship by other communities- Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, Chinese and others. Initially only exteriors were included, but, with the growing number of closures we now record interiors of buildings in ecclesiastical use.
