Kingcase Parish Church is located in South Prestwick, South Ayrshire, Scotland. It is a Parish Church in the Church of Scotland, [1] within the presbytery of Ayr.

The building dates from 1912, and is in red sandstone. [1] The modern history of the church begins immediately after the Union of the Churches in 1929 which brought the four churches in Prestwick together within the Church of Scotland. A new congregation was formed in what was the New Prestwick mission hall of St Nicholas Church. This congregation was recognised as Prestwick Kingcase Church in 1934, becoming a parish church in 1950.[ citation needed ] The church was extended in 1956, and three of its stained-glass windows date from this decade.
