Parish Church, Anwoth

The Parish Church in Anwoth, designed by architect Walter Newall, was built between 1826 and 1827 by contractors William Robertson, John Robertson, and Andrew Mackie. This plain Neo-Gothic hall church features a square tower at the west gable. The walls are constructed from rubble with polished red sandstone used for the angles and window margins.

The church has three bays and is adorned with hood-moulded Tudor-arch windows that have timber mullions and small lying-pane glazing. A single-storey vestry, added in the later 19th century, is located at the east gable and uses similar materials. Notable architectural details include a polished sandstone eaves band, blocking course, skews, skewputts, and slate roofs.

The tower is divided into three stages, with string courses separating each stage. The ground level features two pointed arched doorways, one of which is blocked. The second stage has painted arched bipartite blind windows, while the third stage contains tripartite louvered openings and is topped with an embattled parapet and angle pinnacles.

Inside, the church has a later 19th-century interior with a gallery to the west and a timber-lined coved ceiling. The property is enclosed by good rubble and sandstone coped boundary walls, complemented by bull-faced granite gatepiers.
