This congregation was first formed in 1791. A schism in the 1840s led to the formation of a rival congregation, Tullyvallan Reformed Presbyterian Church on the Tullyneill Road. In 1887 Clerkesbridge formed a union with the First Newtownhamilton church and briefly in the 1930s with Garmany's Grove and McKelvey's Grove. First Newtownhamilton closed in the 1980s and 1999 Garmany's Grove and McKelvey's Grove rejoined the union. The union are part of the Newry Presbytery.
