Carriden Old Church, Carriden Brae, Bo'Ness

Carriden Old Church, located on Carriden Brae in Bo'Ness, is a roofless ruined church built in 1766, featuring a T-plan and a simple Gothic design. To the east, there is a two-stage clock tower added in 1863, topped with a lucarned stone spire, and to the west, a roofed session house. The original church is constructed from sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings, while the tower and session house are made from squared and snecked sandstone. The graveyard contains monuments primarily from the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries, including those dedicated to Dr. John Roebuck and Admiral Sir James Hope.

On the northeast elevation, the tower is positioned to the left, featuring an entrance at ground level and angle buttresses at the first stage. There are simple pointed arch openings on the north, east, and south sides, along with oculi on all faces at the second stage. To the right, there is a slightly advanced single bay and an advanced gabled wing that houses a central aedicule, which protects a 1771 Ionic order monument to Sir William Maxwell of Carriden, complete with a pulvinated frieze. Above this monument is a biblical quote framed in carved stone. To the far right, there is a recessed single bay and a recessed two-bay wing of the session house.

The interior of the church is in a ruinous state, with no roofing or glazing, except for graded grey slates and some cast-iron brattishing on the session house.

In the graveyard to the north of the church, there is a small decorative drinking fountain made by Saracen Foundry, featuring a dish. The monument to Admiral Sir James Hope, who died in 1881, is bordered by a cast-iron anchor chain. The monument to Dr. Roebuck is set within a low stone wall with cast-iron railings, and there are also some modest cast-iron headstones.

To the west, the site is enclosed by square gatepiers topped with pyramidal caps and cast-iron gates. There is a rubble wall with semicircular coping to the north and cast-iron railings to the south.
