The Parish

The boundary of the historic parish of Kelton curves round the north of Carlingwark Loch. The town of Castle Douglas, founded in 1792, was/is technically within the Parish of Kelton.

The Castle Douglas Church now serves the people of Castle Douglas and those from outwith the town who have chosen to worship with us.

The church building has been fitted with 2 phases of solar panels and recent upgrades to the heating and lighting. It is carpeted throughout and the comfortable chairs can be rearranged to suit specific needs. There is an induction Loop system and IT equipment allows for computer- generated graphics.  The church has been be used as a venue for concerts and drama.

A suite of Halls was built in the 1990s : a large ground floor hall with well-equipped kitchen and three rooms of varying sizes beneath are extensively used by the congregation and the community for a wide variety of activities.
