St. Andrew's congregation dates back to 1808, after loyalists settled in The Bahamas, having been banished after the revolutionary war in the United States. The cornerstone for the church was laid in 1810. Construction of the Kirk Hall was completed in 1874. In 2015, the manse is located in Harmony Hill. In 2010, St. Andrew's became a congregation within the Evangelical Presbyterian Church. Before that time, the congregation was an overseas mission of The Church of Scotland. N 25° 4.56 W 077° 20.59 Peck Slope Plans for the Kirk Hall were prepared by New York architect James B. Smith. www.standrewskirk.com
