Church History

• Dunino Parish Church:

The church of Dunino formerly belonged to the college of St Salvator in St Andrews and the session records ministry from 1564, in the person of David Guild. The present day church was erected in 1826. Dunino established a link in 1965 with Boarhills and a further link followed in 1993 with St Andrews Martyrs'. The link with St Andrews Martyrs' continued following the union of Boarhills and Dunino in 1994, under the name of Boarhills and Dunino. The kirk session sits within the Presbytery of St Andrews.
