- Description
- Among the pioneers who settled in the Cobourg area at the beginning of the 19th century were many from Scotland. They sought to establish the kind of church to which they had been used to in Scotland and despite many difficulties, the result of their labour is St.Andrew's Presbyterian Church. The original Scotch Kirk was finished in 1834
