Further references

"In 1794 a Secession church was built on the site which is now occupiedby the Lumsden Memorial Hall, on the eastern edge of Freuchie. Eventually the congregation grew too large and a new church was erected on Church Street in 1868 (site number: 6516). By this point, the congregation had been United Presbyterian for twenty one years. Lumsden Memorial Hall dates to 1883, but may still preserve some of the fabric of the old church in its lower storey."[1]


"In High Street, the Lumsden Memorial Hall, pompous Italian Renaissance, dated 1883."[2]


"The Lumsden Memorial Hall, High Street, 1883, in assertive Victorian style, ensures that the founder of Linen Mill is not forgotten."[3]
