Moulin Pitlochry Free Church
History— This congregation was formed at the Disruption. The minister and congregation of the neighboring “quoad sacra” church of Tenandry "came out" in 183?. In July of that year they were deprived of their church. The minister was called and settled at Moulin, and the congregation at Tenandry, after receiving occasional supply for a time, was merged in that of Moulin in 1848. A feu was refused at Pitlochry so the church and manse were erected at Kinnaird, near the parish church. Owing to the growth of Pitlochry as a summer resort, it was found necessary to build a new church and manse there in 1863. Membership: 1848, 355; 1900, 274.
