Louden described that "Plans and specifications for the new manse were prepared by Mr Gillespie Graham", a fact ascertained from the kirk-session records. Messrs Swinton and Dickson were the contractors. Earlier manse was sited mearer to the church by the
burn, and was pulled down in 1827, owing to its ruinous condition. The new manse cost between $800 and $900.
