St Andrew's Parish Church, Main Street, West Linton

The churchyard of St Andrew's Parish Church is located at the south end of West Linton village, prominently positioned within its burial ground. The core of the churchyard dates to 1781-2, but it was largely recast in 1871, with the addition of a spire. This is a four-bay, broad-plan, gabled parish church with a broached spire and round-arched windows. The exterior is harled with sandstone ashlar dressings, including the lower part of the tower, and features a modillioned eaves course.

The south elevation has a gabled vestry centrally positioned, flanked by pairs of round-arched windows, with the outer windows transomed at mid-height. The central gable above the vestry is steeply pitched and is topped with a cross finial. A rose window is present on the south gable. The east and west elevations feature transomed and traceried three-light windows. The three-stage spire on the north side has chamfered angles to the middle stage, with a single window on each face. The broached spire includes a double string course, trefoil piercings and a cast-iron finial.

The roof is covered in grey slate, with stone skews and skew putts, and cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior contains intricately carved floral timber ornament, dating from circa 1870-1900, to the stalls and gallery, supported by cast-iron Corinthian columns featuring carved texts interspersed with floral panels created by Jane Fergusson of nearby Spitalhaugh. A decorative timber pulpit and communion table, carved by Harriette Woddrop, the wife of the laird of Garvald, are also present. The roof is a collar-beam construction with steel ties. The church possesses a font reassembled from 13th-century fragments. A good collection of stained glass dating from 1871 and 1892 is also on display; in the lower north windows are works, "Sacrifice and Peace" dating from 1967-8 by Sadie McLellan.

The burial ground holds an important collection of 17th, 18th, and 19th-century memorials, headstones and obelisks, many exhibiting well-detailed and well-preserved memento mori. A table tomb belonging to John and Richard Alexander features elaborately carved recumbent effigies. There are burial enclosures for the Fergusson’s of Spitalhaugh at the north end; and enclosures to the northeast for the Lawson of Cairnmuir and Douglas of Garvald families. A pair of gatepiers are located to the northwest, one dated 1601 and bearing the Lawson family arms. The boundary walls are made of coped rubble, including two recessed 'bee-boles'.
