Church Overview

Close by the roofless shell of the 1704 parish church stands J M Dick Peddie’s 1895 sturdy Romanesque church. Built of teh local red sandstone and with an attached square tower with short slated spire.

Unusually colourful kingpost-truss roof over the nave and scissors roof in the chancel. Three-light stained glass window of the Ascension by A Ballantine and Gardiner 1896.

The graveyard contains a late Georgian burial enclosure and the suave classical monument to the Carruthers of Whitecroft.
