Description
Quarrelwood Church comprises a manse and a former Cameronian chapel, likely dating to around 1798. The manse is a two-storey, three-bay building constructed of whitewashed rubble with red ashlar margins. The main entrance features a panelled door with a round-arched and moulded surround, topped by an ogee-glazed fanlight. Plain Venetian windows are located on the ground floor of the outer bays, while the first floor has sash windows with 12-pane glazing. The manse has straight skews, end stacks, and a full-height wing at the rear.
The chapel, originally a Cameronian place of worship, was restored from a ruinous condition by Anthony Curtis Wolfe in 1969 and now functions as a library. It is an irregular octagon with a facetted roof. The south side features three tall, round-headed windows, one of which was originally a doorway. A square-headed window is present on the east side, and a blocked door, also containing two 12-pane sashes and a wall-head stack, is to be found on the north side. Both the manse and chapel have slated roofs. The site is no longer in ecclesiastical use. A photograph of the chapel, without its roof, appears in the Russel BOOK OF DUMFRIESSHIRE (1964).
