Church buildingThe church building in Springfield Terrace was erected in 1852-54 to the designs of John Henderson of Edinburgh. Robert Lorimer contributed the chancel screen and panelling in 1927.[1] The church has a large oblong nave and north aisle with chancel and side chapel. The tower with lucarned spire is at the north-west of the nave and the spire is a prominent landmark on the skyline of the town. The materials are snecked masonry and slate. It was listed as Category B in 1971.[2] The rectory, also by Henderson, is separately listed as Category C.[3] The organ is by Blackett & Howden of Newcastle upon Tyne.[4] History of the congregationThe Episcopalians were driven out of Arbroath parish church in 1694 and met in a series of meeting houses in the town. A Qualified congregation was formed about 1760.[5] After the Episcopal and Qualified congregations joined in 1806 they worshipped in the former Qualified chapel, St Mary's which was sold in 1859 after the present church was built.[6] The St Ninian's United Free Church (now disused) stands on the site of the earlier St Mary's.[7] RecordsChurch records for St Mary's are at University of Dundee Archives among the Brechin Diocesan Library Manuscripts.[8] See also
