Baptist Church, Atholl Road, Pitlochry

This is a Baptist church built in 1884 by D A Crombie. It is a small, aisled, T-shaped building with a two-stage stair tower and belfry. The church is constructed from squared rubble stone with dressed ashlar quoins. A part base course and stepped string course are visible, and the pointed-arch openings have chamfered reveals, hoodmoulds with decorative label stops, and stone mullions.

The principal, or South, elevation features a two-stage gable in the centre with steps leading to a moulded doorcase containing a two-leaf timber door and decorative ironwork hinges. Flanking the door are glazed oculi, all below a stepped string course. A single-stage diagonal buttress is to the right, extending into the second stage to create a hoodmoulded three-light traceried window and an arrowslit in the block-finialled gablehead. To the right of centre is a lower, hipped bay with a small window and a single-stage diagonal buttress. The tower is positioned in the bay to the left.

The Southwest tower is two-stage, with a narrow light at ground level and a simple two-light traceried window above facing South and West (both now blocked with the tracery removed). The sawtooth angles gradually reduce to a moulded frieze, and the tower continues to a polygonal roof and a reduced, also polygonal, second stage with arrowslits to the South and West. Above this sits an attenuated ashlar-roofed spire with a decorative cast-iron finial.

The West elevation reveals a two-bay nave with a basement door on the outer right, and a pagoda-roofed, timber-louvered ridge ventilator in the centre. A transeptal bay is to the left, with a single window, and further window on the return to the right. A modern extension abuts on the return to the left, and the tower is on the outer right. The East elevation is similar to the West, but lacks a basement and tower.

The North elevation is mostly obscured by a later extension, although a small traceried rose window is visible in the gablehead. Coloured leaded glass is used in the traceried windows, with coloured borders and frosted small panes in the nave windows. The roof is covered in grey slates in a fishscale pattern, and includes ashlar coped skews with block skewputts.

The interior features fixed timber pews, boarded timber dadoes, and folding timber doors to the transepts. It has a hammerbeam-type roof and a double stair with timber balusters and finialled newels leading to a pulpit, which includes a gothic-detailed arcaded sounding board below the rose window with a stepped hoodmould.

The boundary walls are constructed of rubble and incorporate decorative two-leaf ironwork gates.
