Description
St Mary's Roman Catholic Church on Huntly Street in Inverness was designed by William Robertson and constructed between 1836 and 1837. The church features a Perpendicular style with pronounced detailing and is built from ashlar stone. The gable front includes an arched door with a rectangular hoodmould, topped by a large traceried window that has an ogee hoodmould. The gable is flanked by octagonal angle buttresses with crocketted finials, which are connected by diagonally-set screen walls to lower octagonal buttresses with pinnacles.
The interior was modified by W L Carruthers in 1893-1894, resulting in an 8-bay aisleless nave and chancel. The roof is designed in the Westminster Palace Gothic style. The reredos and altar, also by W L Carruthers with input from Peter Paul Pugin, were created during this period using Gothic-style Caen stone. There have been some recent alterations to the interior.
