Accessing Scotland's Past Project

Glengairn Parish Church is situated to the east of the A939 public road, north-east of Gairnshiel Lodge. Built in about 1800, it is a very small building, capable of accommodating only about twenty worshippers.

The church is harled, with a bellcote at one end, and it is lit by arch-pointed and round-headed windows in the gable-walls.
