Description
St Columba's Gaelic Church in Greenock is a two-storey building featuring a classic design. The exterior is made of ashlar stone, with a channelled ground floor. The main front has a central window that is framed by fluted Ionic attached columns, topped with a pediment. The church was originally built in 1823 as the Chapel-of-East, known as 'Morin's Kirk', designed by architect James Dempster of Greenock. It was closed in 1843 and later reopened as St. Thomas in 1857, at which time gate piers in the style of Greek Thomson were likely added.
