Description
Rosebank Church, located on Constitution Street in Dundee, was designed by T S Robertson and completed in 1871. This early Gothic church features a simple towered rectangular plan and is constructed from rubble with ashlar dressings. The street elevation showcases a tall central gable that includes three stepped lancets set within a relieving arch, topped with a quatrefoil, although the finial is missing. Small gabled porches on either side contain lancets, kneelers, and fleur de lis finials.
At the northwest corner, there is a square-section tower behind the west porch, which consists of three stages. The first stage has paired lancets, the second features cusped lights, and the third includes twin depressed arch hoodmoulded louvred belfry openings, all topped with a castellated parapet and a pyramidal spire covered in banded fish-scale slates.
The side elevations are harled and also feature paired lancets. The church has slate roofs with lean-to aisles and a tiled ridge, along with unusual two-light gabled dormers and a gable-end stack. The glazing includes cathedral panes, with some modern glass present on the sides.
Originally a mission station, Rosebank Church became a parish church in its own right in 1875 and has a seating capacity of 600.
Inside, the church features a Gothic arcaded nave and galleried aisles, with a fine collar-braced roof. The floor has been raised to the gallery level to create a hall.
The front of the church is bordered by low railed boundary walls with square chamfered pyramidal-capped gatepiers, while tall rubble-built walls define the sides and rear.
