NT 24373 72597 A historical building survey was carried out prior to the conversion of a derelict former freestanding church into accommodation. It was built in 1897 and remained as a church until only 1941 when it was turned into a children’s nursery then a garage. The church comprised a two-storey gothic gable roofed structure with double lancet first floor windows and rectangular ground floor windows, all picked out in pale grey ashlar stonework. The north facade had a rose window with a campanile on the western side. The southern chancel end had a large triple lancet window. The ground floor was utilitarian and a large door for the later garage had been inserted into the western elevation. The first floor remained intact with triple Romanesque stone arches dividing the nave from a single side aisle.
