Manish Free Church, 1853 Unusual double-pile plan, comparable with the former Free Church, Plockton. One transverse elevation forms the simple threebay frontage (now stripped of protective harling); the roof valley behind is supported internally by cast-iron columns. Turning its back on the church to face the sea is the contemporary manse (with later modifications).
