A Secession Burgher Church was set up following a split from the Parish Church in 1767. They met in various location and a church was cormally composed in 1778. The church was built in 1782. They adhered to the New Lichts in 1799 and in 1820 united with the Antiburgher New Lichts to create the United Secession Church. In turn in 1847 at the union of the United Secession and relief Churches it became Eaglesham United Presbyterian Church. A manse was built in 1867 and a new church built in Montgomery Street in 1868/70. The old church continued as a mission church for a time and was then sold to the Roman Catholic Church who formed St Bridget's Church.
