Description
St Teresa's Roman Catholic Church, located on Graham Street in Dundee, was designed by W W Friskin and completed in 1938. This small church is built of brick and features a steep slate roof.
The west elevation is gabled and topped with a cross finial and shaped skews. It has a gabletted entrance adorned with patterned brickwork in a diamond pattern on the tympanum, and an ashlar door surround. There are two small round-headed windows on each side of the entrance, and a small flat-roofed vestry is attached to the north.
The side elevation consists of four bays with tall gabled windows that break the eaves, featuring concrete lintels, brick relieving arches, and slate-hung sides. At the northwest corner, there is a small gabled porch with a Venetian window facing north and a tall chimney stack.
The chancel maintains the same roof height as the nave, with windows positioned beneath higher eaves. The east gable is plain and supported by slim buttresses.
The church is enclosed by simple railings and ornate steel gates set between cross-finialled gate-posts, along with brick boundary walls.
Inside, the church has a simple aisleless design with an A-frame structure and a plain chancel arch. It features alabaster stations of the cross and a timber back gallery with niches.
