Other information
The Rev James Gerard Young DD (1821-1899) was minister of the Parish of Monifieth 1855-99. The Gerard Trust was set up under his will for the establishment of a cottage hospital in Monifieth. The Gerard Cottage Hospital opened in Oct 1905 and was operated by a Trust until Jul 1948, when it was transferred to the Eastern Regional Hospital Board. By 1970 the hospital had been closed and the building altered and extended to become St Mary's Residential Home for the Elderly run by sisters of that Order and owned by the Diocese of Dunkeld.
