Cortachy and Clova kirk session

A church court that sat within the presbytery of Forfar and the synod of Angus and Mearns. Prior to the reformation, the church of Clova belonged to the Abbey of Arbroath. Cortachy was a former prebend of Brechin. The two sessions were united together in 1618, but the union was dissolved in 1860 when Clova was disjoined quoad sacra from Cortachy.
