Subject notes
Bo'ness and Carriden Free Church was built in 1844. The building suffered some alterations in 1850 and 1873. It was reconstructed in 1908. It later served as a reading room provided by Henry M Cadell of Grange for the working men of the town and still later as the Bo'ness United Social Club. It sat on Boundary Street, because it was intended to serve the Free Kirkers of both Bo'ness and Carriden Parish.
