Description
St Bridget's Hall, located on Dunnottar Avenue in Stonehaven, is an Arts and Crafts style church designed by G P K Young in 1886 and later converted into a church hall. The building features a six-bay buttressed nave with a large shallow-pitched roof, which includes a canopied bell-housing, jerkinhead dormers, and a square-plan spirelet topped with decorative finials. There is a piended session room and a porch as well. The exterior is constructed from squared and snecked rubble with smooth ashlar dressings, and it has a base course and cill course at the gablehead window. The entrance includes a voussoired, round-headed door, and the windows are characterized by chamfered reveals, raked cills, and timber mullions, with cusped three-light windows set in rectangular openings. A modern flat-roofed hall has been added.
The south elevation features a gabled front with a projecting three-bay porch that has a round-headed window (which has been altered from a door) at the center, flanked by three-light windows and two-light windows on the returns. A horizontal five-light window is located in the gablehead, leading to the timber-bracketed and finialled bell-housing. The outer left bay contains a two-light window, while the outer right bay has a plain timber door with a deep fanlight.
The east elevation, facing Bridgefield, shows the nave with a three-light window in each bay, separated by dividing buttresses, and has two three-light dormer windows above. The north elevation, facing Bridgefield Terrace, includes a piend-roofed session room that projects from the gabled elevation. The west elevation has two three-light windows on the right, with a later gabled porch and hall projecting on the left, along with two additional three-light windows above.
The building features multi-pane leaded glazing with colored glass, a slated roof adorned with decorative terracotta ridge tiles and finials, and overhanging eaves with plain bargeboarding.
Inside, the hall boasts a simple open timbered roof supported by stone corbels, with moulded cornices, architraves, panelled round-headed doors, and dado rails.
The boundary walls consist of low saddleback-coped rubble, with square-plan ashlar gatepiers and decorative ironwork gates.
