Former CoS Parish Mission Hall, Rankinston, Ayrshire


The Schaw Kirk and Coylton Church held monthly services in the Ayrshire Christian Union Mission Hall prior to 1955. In that year they purchased a house across the road and converted to a church hall. This eventually closed about 1974 and was renovated to create a house. The belfry was removed.

The building was long and narrow in domestic style. When purchased it was extended to the north and a belfry was added.
