Christ Church can be found on Middle Road not far from the Belmont Golf Course. It was built in 1719, and though it is today part of the Church of Scotland, its early days saw it as an independent Presbyterian church. If you are visiting the church on Sunday, you can attend the 8 a.m. or 11 a.m. mass.
