This gothic revival church was opened in 1884 as the North Church in the market town of Crieff.
In 1955 the church merged with the West Church and in 1964 became St.Andrew's Parish Church.
In the late 20th century it then merged with St.Michael's Parish Church which stands directly opposite on Strathearn Terrace. St.Michael's then became Crieff Parish Church and St.Andrews became the church hall.
At its north-east corner is a five stage tower and spire that dominates the skyline north of the town centre along with the bell tower of the parish church opposite.
The steeple is situated on the corner of Strathearn Terrace and Ferntower Road in a suburban area of the town.
