Hamilton United Reformed Church

The current congregation, formed in 1966, is made up of two congregations, both formerly members of the Congregational Union of Scotland. The present building opened in 1872, being the new building for Park Road E.U. Church founded in 1845, a congregation formed mainly by a section breaking away from St. James' Congregational Church, which included the parents of David Livingstone. This latter church formed in 1807, eventually settled in Auchingramont Road in a building opened in 1873. The Livingstone family were added to the Church Roll in 1835, and it was this Church David Livingstone attended prior to missionary Service with the London Missionary Society. The current Church retains some Livingstone memorabilia.
