St Margaret's Church, Barnhill

The Barnhill congregation worshipped in a corrugated iron building, known as the Tin Kirk, until 1895. This building is still in use as one of the church halls. The first phase of a proper building on Invermark Terrace, Broughty Ferry, was undertaken that year, including the vaulted porch at the main entrance which can be seen in the photograph. The crowstepped gable of the porch surmounts a moulded Gothic arch, with a niche containing a sculpted figure of the patron saint. St Margaret's was granted full status as a parish church in March 1907
