        History

        St Andrew's Church, Alloa was originally formed as the Union Free Church after a secession from Alloa East Free Church led by the Assistant Minister, John Dempster Munro, in 1875. He was disqualified by the Free Church Presbytery and the congregation's petition to be admitted as a congregation under the supervision of the Presbytery was refused. After petitioning the Church of Scotland the congregation became members, as St Andrew's Church, under the supervision of Alloa Parish Church. Quoad Sacra status was bestowed in 1913 and St Andrew's was disjoined from Alloa. In 1970 the congregation of St Andrew's united with Chalmers Church and became Alloa North Parish Church but remained in the same building on Mar Place.
