Description

St Martin's Roman Catholic Church, located at 201 Ardencraig Road in Castlemilk, Glasgow, was designed by Gillespie, Kidd and Coia and completed in 1961. The building consists of a church and a presbytery, constructed from concrete and facing brick, which is now rendered, with copper roofs.

The church has a trapezoidal shape with an apse that contains the altar. It features small, irregularly-placed rectangular windows glazed with coloured glass. The main source of lighting comes from the roof, which tapers down from the apse to the ecclesiastical west end at a variable pitch. There is a deep concrete eaves band with a plain cope, and the apse roof is flat.

Inside, the church showcases pointed grey brick and polished wood. Confessionals are located to the north, and there is a choir gallery above the entrance.

The presbytery is a two-storey building with a basement, set into the hillside and topped with a monopitch roof. It has irregular rectilinear glazing in a 1920s Dutch style and features vaulted concrete ceilings.

Due to the sloping site, the roadway includes extensive stairways made of concrete with steel rails, as well as a ramped roadway and a car park that is hard landscaped with lines and patches of granite setts.
