Description

James Up Church, located at 3 Bell Street in Dundee, is a former warehouse building dating back to 1845, with upper floors added in the late 19th century. It stands four storeys tall with a basement and has been extended and converted from a United Presbyterian church. The building is situated on a sloping site at the corner of Bell Street and Euclid Crescent and features a stugged pink sandstone exterior with ashlar dressings and a piended grey slate roof.

The Bell Street elevation has three bays, with the center bay slightly advanced. There is a blocked depressed-arch door in the center, which is topped by a rectangular hoodmould and flanked by buttresses. The left side has been altered with a later door, while the right side is mostly obscured by an early lean-to addition that includes a door and round-headed windows. Above this, there is a large multi-pane astragelled window with chamfered jambs and a hoodmould, along with similar narrower windows on either side and recessed canted windows in the outer bays of the second floor. The third floor features three windows.

The Euclid Crescent elevation consists of five bays. To the right, there are three margined basement windows, while the left side has a shopfront supported by cast-iron columns and a moulded and consoled fascia. The ground and first floors have five windows that extend across both levels, separated by a transom. The ground floor windows have a single pane at the bottom and six-pane cathedral glass panes at the top, while the first floor windows feature eight panes at the bottom and nine cathedral glass panes at the top, with two windows on the left that have been altered and partially blocked. The second floor has five recessed canted windows, and the third floor has five windows.

The interior has not been seen.
