The founding of a Free Church in 1843 was the result of the departure of so many from the established church with the Disruption. The congregation rose to 170 and had members from Smailholm, Stichill and Ednam. After the initial burst of enthusiasm, the numbers dwindled and the church closed in 1914. The building is now the Community Hall.
