Strathbogie Parish Church, 1840-1. Built as a result of the Marnoch case (see 'Banff & Buchan' in this series), the precursor of the Disruption. Became Free Church on the occasion of the Disruption. Large harled rectangle with
squared granite front set with paired Doric pilasters and a pediment. New front and offset Italianate tower, 1862, James Matthews; original glazing; later hall projects to street with plain pediment and round-headed windows echoing church. An excellent ensemble.
