Grangemouth Kerse Parish Church
|
Kerse Church was formed as the result of a division within Grangemouth Parish Church during the 1890s. In 1897 a group from the Parish Church petitioned the Presbytery of Linlithgow to establish a new mission charge and the congregation began meeting in Grangemouth Town Hall in May 1897, calling Rev W A Knowles as minister in September. The church building was dedicated on 24th February 1899. A manse was acquired in 1929. Kerse was disjoined from Polmont parish and erected as a quoad sacra parish by the Court of Teinds on 13 July 1906.

Kerse Estates Ltd
|
The lands of Kerse were granted to William Menteith in 1513 by James IV, then confiscated in 1631 and granted to Sir Thomas Hope. The barony and estate of West Kerse was purchased in 1752 by Laurence Dundas who became 1st Baronet of Kerse in 1762. It was Laurence Dundas who laid the foundation of the town of Grangemouth. In 1768 he was elected to Parliament for Edinburgh, a constituency he represented until his death in 1781. Sir Laurence was succeeded by his only son, Sir Thomas, who was MP for Stirling County in 1768-69 and was created Baron Dundas of Aske in 1794. He died in 1820. Thomas, Lord Dundas, was succeeded by his son Lawrence, who was created Earl of Zetland by Queen Victoria in 1838, a year before his death in 1839. When Grangemouth became a MagistratesÂ’ Burgh in 1872 the influence of the Dundas family in the town lessened.
