Description
St Fillan's Church, located at 20 King Street in Newport-On-Tay, was built in 1886. This single-storey, L-plan church is constructed from timber and corrugated iron and features triangular-headed windows. It is situated on a sloping site between King Street and Queen Street in a residential area. The church has a tall pyramidal ventilator cap on the roof ridge, which includes a pierced timber base and a cross-finial. There is a slightly lower transept outshot to the north that forms part of the L-plan. A gabled porch outshot on the west side features trefoil decoration, a window to the west, and a timber door to the north. The east gable has a bipartite window, and the gables have timber eaves with square-cut decoration, all resting on a brick base.
The windows have timber frames with 4-pane glazing, and the building is equipped with cast iron rainwater goods. The interior, which was observed in 2013, includes timber panelled walls, timber pews sourced from another church, an ambry recess, and a plinth with a decorative timber surround. The ceiling features a cross-braced timber frame supported by timber corbels, and the doors have trefoil-headed glazed panels.
