Description

The churchyard and church at Kirkton of Lochalsh date from 1804 to 1806, with repairs carried out in 1910 by Robert J Macbeth. The church is a tall, rectangular building with harled walls, accented by tooled margins and quoins. It features four round-headed windows on its south elevation, and a single similar window on each of the east and west gables. The windows have an intersecting Y-glazing pattern. A smaller, later window has been inserted into the north elevation, providing light to a later vestry. The roof is covered in slate.

The interior is galleried, with a panelled gallery front supported by wooden pilasters. Later 19th-century additions include a pulpit and pews. The church is an ecclesiastical building and remains in use.

The walled churchyard contains a late medieval grave slab, decorated with an incised sword and the initials 'F M,' and a recumbent figure holding a sword. The church is referenced in several historical documents, including an advertisement for tenders in the Edinburgh Evening Courant in May 1804, the Imperial Gazetteer of Scotland (c. 1858), and the Northern Chronicle of July 20, 1910.
