Garvald and Bara, Church of Scotland

The church has a graveyard.

The current church was completely remodelled in 1829, however, it appears to have been built on, and contains, part of earlier structures, dating back to the 12th Century.

More details, and photographs, are available from Canmore.

A history of the parish is also available.

OPRs (Old Parish Registers) are available from 1694, covering Births and Marriages, however, at some points the records are "very defective".

Further details on the records available can be found in the NRS.
