Abercorn Parish Church is a remarkable place. A small part of it can be dated to the 1100s; what you can see today is only part of the story. There are clues to an even longer history in the collection of stones on display in the excellent Abercorn Museum, just inside the churchyard Gates. These include Viking hog-back tombstones; a cross stone; and a carved cross shaft dating from the 600s.
The site of Abercorn Parish Church has been hallowed ground since St Ninian visited during a mission to the Picts in the late 400s. Before long, his followers had established a church here, perhaps the earliest in this part of Scotland. And by the late 600s, the Northumbrians established Abercorn as the seat of one of their four bishops.
