Glenapp Church From a bequest in 1819, by Mrs Isabella Butter who was the widow of James Caddell, minister of New Luce, a church was built at Glenapp in 1849/50. The church is sometimes referred to as Butters Church. Also, it can be referred to as Church of the Mark or the Glen Kirk. In 1850 a manse and school was also built. The church disjoined from Ballantrae Parish in 1874. It was restored by Macgregor Chalmers in 1910 and woodwork renewed by James Bowie of Ayr in 1929/39. In 1985 it was united with Ballantrae Church. Services are still held monthly.
