| Town, district or village: | West Wemyss |
| City or county: | Fife |
| Country: | Scotland |
| Parish: | |
| Status: | C Listed |
| Grid ref: | |
| Notes: | HS Lists state that Alexander Tod supplied the design and that A Stewart Tod executed it. This is incorrect as A Stewart Tod was less than a year old at the time the church opened. The confusion presumably arises from the fact that Charles R Tod, son of A Stewart Tod, altered the church in 1969, at which point he was working under the practice title of A Stewart Tod & Sons, A Stewart Tod having died in 1964. Cost (excluding tower) £1,600 There is some conflict about the dates of this church - Cunningham gives 1895 as date of opening, whilst the 1890 date may have some from Stewart Tod. This needs to be checked. |
