Description

The Berneray Parliamentary Church, designed by Thomas Telford, was built in 1829. It is a roofless structure that remains largely intact. The church features a T-plan layout with two inner windows and outer doors on the long east wall. The openings are depressed-arched, and the windows have simple iron tracery. The building is constructed of rubble with ashlar dressings.
