The Stewartry of Strathearn

Aberuthven Church


The village of Aberuthven is situated two miles from Auchterarder. Local folk still know the village as "Smiddy Haugh", reference to a smithy and the flat land by the river side. A Secession church was founded in Aberuthven which, after the 1929 Scottish church union, became a parish church quoad sacra. The eighteenth century building was sold and converted as a residence in 1988. The present church building was dedicated on Easter Sunday 1991. The remains of the medieval parish church, St. Kattan's, are to the west of the village. Added to the ruined church and dating from the 1730s is the Montrose Mausoleum, burial place of the Graham earls of Montrose.
