Roseangle Ryehill Church, 130 Perth Road, Dundee

Roseangle Ryehill Church, located at 130 Perth Road in Dundee, was designed by James Hutton and completed in 1884. This decorated Gothic church features a cruciform plan and is situated in a prominent location, highlighted by its tall spire. The church is constructed from rubble with notable ashlar details, and the carvings were done by Mr. Bremner of Broughty Ferry.

On the north elevation, there is a gabled central four-light window adorned with a rose and the heads of Luther, Knox, and Chalmers, who was the first Moderator of the Free Church, all set within a carved tympanum. Below this, a three-light window is situated under projecting gablets. Access to the doors is provided by steps on either side, and the gablets feature carved tympana with cross finials, as well as carved animals and birds. To the right, there are lancets with flowing tracery above a narrow buttressed bay that has a gablet and pinnacles crowning the buttresses. There is also a lower extension with a facetted roof to the right and a centre gable with a pierced parapet.

The tower, located to the left, has a square base with chamfered angles that are broached at the belfry level. It features louvred belfry lancets, pinnacles, and gargoyle spouts at the base of the spire, which culminates in a steep facetted design topped with a wrought-iron finial.

The side elevations include three flowing traceried gabletted windows positioned between buttresses. The transept boasts a large four-light flowing traceried window, along with trefoil and angle gargoyles. The apse is semi-octagonal, featuring gabletted lancets and angle buttresses, with plain basement windows that have cathedral glazing. The roof is slate with a flèche at the transept crossing. Additionally, there are good cast-iron railings with zoomorphic handrails.

Inside, the church has a plaster rib vaulted ceiling supported by tall clustered columns, with the transept crossing resting on angel corbels. The organ, originally located in the apse, was moved to the rear gallery in 1969; it was housed in a 1895 organ case by R and J Sibbald, which has been partially altered. The apse contains modest stained glass, while the side war memorial windows were created by Stephen Adam of Glasgow. A vestibule window, designed by A L Russell in 1952, commemorates William Lyon Mackenzie, a Canadian patriot and writer born near Springfield, Dundee in 1795; this window was erected by William Lyon Mackenzie-King, the Prime Minister of Canada, and was relocated from St Mark's Church on Perth Road.
