Echt Parish Kirk, 1804, William and Andrew Clerk. Real quality: striking west frontage, three bay, centre advanced, with elegant elliptical window, curved gablet and bellcote, to Gothic four-window rectangle, harled with margins and original basket-tracery glazing. Original gallery inside with Doric columns bearing arms. (St Machar-type ceiling, pulpit, lectern,
communion table, 1930, William Kelly.) In all very like Skene, and old Crathie: 600 sittings.
