Baptist ChurchIn 1876 two members of Kilmarnock`s Baptist Church came to reside in Gasswater - not far from Cumnock - and the first meetings were held there. The village meetings continued for six months and then the meeting place was changed to Cumnock - thus Cumnock`s Baptist Church came into being.
After meetings in a variety of halls for a number of years, a decision was taken to erect a church building, and the present church in Barrhill Road was built in c1886 with seating for 200. The manse was purchased in 1919 and in the early 1930s the church was extended by the addition of a hall, vestry, and ladies` room all of which are in constant use at the present day. The front porch dates from the 1970s.
