Description
St Ninian's Church, located on Bank Street in Brechin, was built between 1875 and 1876 by architect William Leiper from Glasgow. This church showcases a tall and simple design in the distinctive Normandy Gothic style. It is constructed from snecked rubble with polished dressings and features five bays that are aisled without a clerestory. The gable front is flanked by transeptal features that contain stairs and an octagonal spirelet on the left, which has an open top stage.
The entrance is marked by a boldly moulded doorpiece, with two windows above it that have two orders of shafts and sculptured capitals. A vesica window is positioned above these, topped with a finial at the apex. The transeptal features are flush and include two-light plain circle plate tracery, while the rest of the nave is adorned with twin lancets. At the rear, there is a lower transverse hall that features an over-arched twin lancet. The church is topped with a slated roof that has bracketed eaves, and there is one dormer ventilator in each bay near the ridge.
