St Meddans Parish Church is a relaxed Presbyterian Church situated in the Clyde Coast resort of Troon, some 30 miles south west of Glasgow.   Our minister, Rev David L. Harper, came to St. Meddan’s in 1979 after 7 years in his first charge at Erskine. He golfs, goes hill-walking, runs and generally likes to keep fit.  We enjoy relaxed, All Age Worship with lively participation from many groups such as Praisemor, Church Choir and Worship Group.

You will be certain of a warm welcome here!

Troon is Gaelic for “nose”and a look at a map shows how it got this name.  It is a traditional seaside town, but with that little bit extra. Our beaches have long been popular with visitors old and young, with families, and recently with an ever increasing number of wind sport enthusiasts. So whether going for a paddle or just having a picnic, Troon’s beaches await you.

Troon is renowned for its Golf Courses and regularly hosts the British Open Golf Championship.  Indeed Troon has 5 excellent golf courses. 

“Of course, there is so much to be had free, – the sea, the shore and fresh air, things we take for granted and in Troon we have them in plenty. Some of the sunsets over Arran are as beautiful, if not more so, than can be seen anywhere else in the world. At sunset the sky covered with miniature clouds, like the ripples on the sand at low tide, – clouds flecked with gold – from the hills of Arran to the mid-heavens.  The sea a flat calm, painted in red and gold, and there is a sense of peace and quiet, which is quite breathtaking.”
