Description

Isle Parish Church, built in 1844, was originally a United Free Church and is now part of the Church of Scotland. It is a simple rectangular hall church featuring twin gabled lower bays on the west side and a birdcage bellcote on the east gable. The exterior is made of painted rubble with raised painted margins.

The east gable has a gabled porch with a simple pointed-arch window, flanked by three lancet windows, all featuring small pane Y-tracery glazing. The west gable wall includes twin projecting gabled bays that serve as a vestry, each topped with finials at the gable apexes. The end skews are finished in ashlar, and there is an ashlar bell cloche on the east side that houses a bell, all under slate roofs. Surrounding the church is a low rubble wall that supports cast-iron railings, with gates located to the east.

Inside, the church has simple painted walls and a flat ceiling, with a boarded dado. The main body of the church is filled with pews and side aisles. Notable interior features include a dignified timber pulpit, lectern, communion table, and priest's chair.
