St Andrew's Episcopal Church, High Street, Banff

St Andrew's Episcopal Church, located on High Street in Banff, was designed by Archibald Simpson and built between 1833 and 1834. This Tudor Gothic church features a polished sandstone ashlar entrance gable at the front, while the rear is harled with ashlar margins and dressings.

The entrance includes a hoodmoulded pointed-arch recessed doorway beneath a cusped, traceried, and hoodmoulded window. Flanking the entrance are narrow round full-height tourelles that rise above the gabled wallhead, topped with crocketed pinnacles. The church has long return gables that are lit by elongated margined pointed-arch windows.

An extension was added to the rear of the church in 1913, which includes a re-set hoodmoulded, cusped, and traceried window. The extension features a raised basement that accommodates the sloping site, and there is a lean-to entrance porch that projects at the southeast, also dated 1913. The church is topped with slate roofs.

In front of the church, there are renewed spearhead cast-iron railings with urn stiffeners, which are continuous with those of the rectory.

Inside, the church has a galleried interior with original pointed-arch panelling on the gallery front. The gallery area has been converted for meeting use, with the seats removed. Original gothic panelled double-leaf doors connect the lobby and nave. There are later 19th-century church fittings, including a Gothic-style marble reredos and altar that were re-sited in the 1913 chancel, a hexagonal stone font mounted on stumpy cluster columns, and poppy-head pews.
