Scope and Content Free Church, Queen Street, Inverness, Highland Inverness expanded rapidly in the 19th century following construction of the Caledonian Canal (begun in 1804) and connection to the rail network (1855). Its main industries at that period were ship-building, iron founding and saw-milling. Queen Street Free Church was built in 1893-5 to replace an earlier church. Its congregation had formed in 1829 as part of the new United Secession Church, became United Presbyterian in 1847, but then joined the Free Church in 1873. This building is no longer in ecclesiastical use but has been converted into an funeral director's premises. The Free Church of Scotland was created as a result of the Great Disruption of 1843 when nearly a third of the Church of Scotland's ministers left to form a separate church.
