Cardonald Parish Church is a 19th-century Parish church of the Church of Scotland, located in the Cardonald area of Glasgow.
The congregation was established on 26 January 1887, with a meeting held in a school room in Cardonald. In 1889 a Minister was appointed to minister to the congregation, while on 14 July 1890, the parish of Cardonald was created, after it was disjoined from the parish of Paisley and Govan. Initially the parish was part of the Presbytery of Paisley, however, in 1929, Cardonald Parish Church was transferred to the Presbytery of Glasgow.[1]
