Abstract

This research project has collated information on the behaviour of congregations of the three nationally organised Presbyterian denominations active in Scotland between 1843 and 1874. Data covers attendance, building size, congregational giving, and stipend levels. It has been collated to permit inter-denominational comparisons of activity during this period of intense competition in local religious markets.
