Description
The Free Church in Canonbie, opened on January 5, 1851, is a rectangular-plan, five-bay Gothic church featuring buttresses. It is constructed from stugged grey ashlar with polished dressings. The church has single openings, mostly hood-moulded and with pointed heads. A gabled porch is located at the east end of the south wall, while a vestry is at the west end of the north wall. The porch has a south-facing door set in moulded reveals, and there are single lights in the buttressed bays. A continuous string at cill level is raised as a hood-mould over the central door on the east gable, with three single lights stepped above this door. The church also features a gabled belfry, saw-toothed skews, and gabletted skewputts, all topped with a slate roof.
Inside, there is a pulpit with a panelled front against the west gable, flanked by steps with ornamental wooden balustrades. The roof timbers rest on stone corbels.
