St Cuthbert's Church, 870 Garscube Road, Glasgow

St Cuthbert's Church, located at 870 Garscube Road in Glasgow, is a former Free Church designed for the Free St Matthew's Congregation between 1896 and 1899 by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, while he was an assistant with John Honeyman and Keppie. The church is built from red sandstone ashlar and features a tapering 'medieval' tower, gothic gables, and unique Art Nouveau details that anticipate Mackintosh's later decorative style.

The church has a rectangular layout with transepts and a porch. At the southwest corner, there is a tapering tower that includes a stair turret, a perpendicular window, and a louvred window in the upper section, inspired by the medieval tower of Merriott Church in Somerset. The prominent south elevation showcases two full-height gabled bays with large perpendicular gallery windows, an adjoining tower, and two low aisle bays supported by a bold flying buttress. The east side features a two-storey porch with distinctive Art Nouveau details, while the west gable has a large perpendicular window.

Inside, the church contains a wide timber barrel-vaulted hall supported by rolled steel tie beams. A passage aisle on the south side connects the two main entrances. There are galleries on the east side and in the southwest projection, which are boldly cantilevered and include pendant details.

Some interior furnishings were designed by Mackintosh. In 1944, the rear five rows of pews were removed, and the timber was repurposed to create a decorative screen under the east gallery, designed by Thomas Howarth. The west window features three coloured lights designed by Gordon Webster in 1960. The beam spanning the chancel arch, which is not technically a rood beam as it does not support a cross, was reconstructed in 1990 based on photographs of the original that was removed in the 1950s.

The adjoining hall can be accessed via a link from the east end. This hall has a rectangular plan with a typical Mackintosh open-trussed roof and top lighting, along with tall dado panelling and a deep cornice.
