The Church of Scotland in Cumlodden was built in 1841 and is designed in a plain Gothic Revival style. It has an oblong shape with thinly rendered walls and a gabled slate roof. At the northeast end, there is a belfry topped with a pyramidal stone cap and corner finials. The church features both pointed and round-headed windows, along with a gabled porch. The interior is simple and has been recently repainted. Additionally, a gabled hall was added to the southwest end of the building.
