Late C18 octagonal church building.
The Glasite movement was founded by the Minister of Tealing Parish Church, John Glas, in 1725 in a break from the established church. Having lost his own parish, Glas moved into the nearby city of Dundee where the first church of the Glasite movement was founded.
Glas introduced the idea of a simple meal at the church for worshippers, hence the church gaining the nickname of the Kail Kirk.
The decrease in numbers of followers of the Glasite movement meant that church passed to St Andrew's Church and is now used as part of their church hall complex.
