Following the Disruption of 1843, a new church was built for the Free Church of Scotland congregation at The Craggan, a site overlooking the east bank of the River Avon, about 250m north of Craggan farmhouse.
Prior to the construction of their church in 1844, the congregation met outdoors at a site known as the Moderator's Seat, about 460m south of the church. Few details are recorded about the church, which remained in use until 1929 when what had become the United Free Church returned to the Church of Scotland. After this date, the church was closed and then demolished in some time later.
