This is the oldest Methodist Church In Scotland, having been first erected in 1764 and later enlarged in 1857. Both John Wesley and Charles Wesley were trustees of the Society in Dunbar and John preached at the Methodist Church on 21 occasions. In his diary entry for May 17th 1770 he wrote “In the evening I preached at the new house at Dunbar, the cheerfullest in all the Kingdom.”
