Formerly Dunnichen, Letham & Kirkden Church
Dunnichen, Letham & Kirkden Church was formed when 2 parishes combined. Kirkden Church was demolished in 1952, and now all that remains of it is a very pleasant church yard. Situated in this church yard is the bell from the church. Dunnichen Church closed, permanently, on 21st August 2011. The church has now been sold to a private buyer wishing to convert it into a dwelling. The church yard, which belongs to Angus Council, will, of course, be preserved and there will be complete right of access to it at all times.
Please note that the cemeteries and graveyards are owned and maintained by Angus Council. Burial records ar now available at
www.deceasedonline.com.
Letham Church,therefore, remains as the only Church for the Parish. It lies in the heart of Letham village and the hall is used by many local groups. The address is Dundee Road, Letham, Forfar, Angus DD8 2PP.
Everyone is invited to come to the services, held at 10.30am each Sunday, and will be made very welcome.
The Church GuildDunnichen, Letham & Kirkden Church Guild had to close in 2023 due to lack of people to run it. The Guild Members have joined with the Guild held at All Souls @ Lowson Church in Forfar. This meets every fortnight on Wednesday afternoons.
