Parish Church, Strichen

The former Strichen Parish Church (1798 by John Adamson; refurbished 1844 by Alexander Ellis) is a rectangular-plan, gabled building located in the burial ground (LB16571) between Newton Wood and the North Ugie Water in the village of Strichen, Aberdeenshire.

It is constructed from granite rubble with a later cement render. The gables have round-headed doorways with Serlian windows and ball finials above. The gable to the west is surmounted by a stone birdcage bellcote. The south elevation has four large round-arched windows. Some zinc window frames with simple twin-arched tracery survive. The roof is slated, with metal roof vents along the ridge. At the southeast corner of the building is a single-storey furnace house/session house addition, now roofless, with a tall chimney. The interior scheme has been largely removed. An exposed timber king-post ceiling structure survives.
