Description
St Cuthbert's Parish Church, located on St Mary's Road in Weirhill, Melrose, was originally designed by John Smith of Darnick between 1808 and 1810. After a fire, J M Dick Peddie reconstructed the church in 1911, retaining only Smith's tower. The tower consists of four stages made of polished ashlar. The lower two stages are square in plan and feature round-headed openings. The third stage is set back and includes a clock, while the belfry above is octagonal and topped with an octagonal stone spire.
The main body of the church is attached to the north side of the tower and is oriented east-west. It showcases a Georgian revival style with tall round-headed windows situated between buttresses that support a balustraded entablature. The church is constructed from coursed squared rubble with polished dressings. The aisles have flat roofs, the nave has a pitched slated roof, and the chancel is lower, featuring a pediment to the east above a Venetian window.
