Bonkle Parish Church Hall, Church Road, Bonkle

The building is Bonkle Parish Church, dating from 1878. It is a rectangular, gothic church situated on Church Road, Bonkle.

The church is constructed of squared and tooled sandstone with ashlar detailing. It features a gabled shape with an engaged, four-stage entrance tower to the north gable, as well as arcade and gallery windows to the nave. A continuous cill string course runs around the ground level, with stopped hoodmoulds above the openings and a corbelled eaves course. The clerestory windows feature pointed arches and plate tracery.

The north (principal) elevation incorporates the engaged tower centrally. A slightly advanced, gabled porch is present at the apex of the tower, featuring a foliate finial, a roll and nailhead moulded deep reveal, a two-leaf door with decorative strap-hinges, and a two-light lancet window with a quatrefoil. The third stage of the tower is battered, displaying a 1878 date stone and a small louvered lancet opening with a broad cill course. Above this is a bipartite, cusped lancet opening separated by a stone mullion, another continuous cill course, and an eaves course with a corbelled cornice, culminating in a spire.

The south (rear) elevation has three large, stepped lancet windows in the centre. A single-story lean-to vestry is situated to the ground level, and an advanced lean-to entrance porch is located to the right return.

The east and west elevations are regular with four bays of fenestration; ground-floor windows are bipartite, and the clerestory windows are two-light, plate traceried.

The windows are square and leaded, with grey slates and lead flashing. Cast-iron rainwater goods are present, along with saw-tooth coped skews and gablet kneelers.

The interior features a gabled nave with a billetted cornice. A timber U-plan gallery runs around the nave, incorporating fixed family box pews to the gable end, supported on cast-iron pillars with foliate capitals. Steps lead to a canted, timber-panelled pulpit at the south end, with a door to the left providing access to a small vestry and a rear entrance. Fixed timber pews are found within the nave and aisles, with doors on the north end leading to a vestibule; flanking staircases provide access to the gallery. Decorative geometric patterned stained glass is located at the chancel end.

Adjacent to the church is a church hall, constructed around 1890. It is a U-plan, gabled building of squared and tooled sandstone, featuring bipartite windows with stone mullions to advanced wings, with arrow slits above. A door is located to the right return of the left wing, with flanking bipartite windows to the right wing; a gap is partially filled with a later lean-to addition. The rear is regularly fenestrated, with a modern hall abutting the southern side. The hall is roofed with grey slates and lead flashing, and has coped skews with kneelered skewputts.

Gate piers are constructed of octagonal stone, featuring a plinth, an entablature with a quatrefoil frieze, and pyramidal caps.
