Description
St Mary's Church, located on St Mary Street in Kirkcudbright, was built between 1872 and 1874 and is designed in the early decorated Gothic style. The church features a nave with a four-stage tower and a broached spire on the right, along with a gabled porch on the left. At the east end, there are two projecting transepts. The structure is made of snecked, squared granite with polished sandstone dressings.
The west front has a central door with pointed-arched reveals, flanked by two side lights that are linked under a continuous hoodmould. Above the door, there is a four-light window with reticulated tracery. The tower also has a door similar to that of the gabled porch. The tower is supported by angle buttresses topped with pinnacles, and it features louvered belfry openings in the fourth stage. The spire has four lucarnes at its base and four smaller ones higher up.
The nave consists of three buttressed bays, each with paired lights below and triangular lights leading to the gallery, all adorned with foliate label stops. The final bay includes projecting aisles, and the church is topped with a slate roof.
