Description
The Methodist Church and Halls on Dalrymple Street in Girvan, built in 1902 in the Arts and Crafts style, is designed in the manner of W G Rowan. The building features snecked and stugged red sandstone and consists of a four-bay nave with a south aisle beneath a swept roof. A large gothic window with perpendicular tracery is located in the west gable, and there is a porch in the west bay of the aisle with an open timber-framed gable end. The aisle has small tripartite windows.
Inside, the detailing is simple, but the boldly braced timber roof stands out. To the east, there is a wide two-storeyed gabled bay that includes a square-headed door and a pair of four-centred lights to the right, along with one three-light and one two-light window above. The building has two stacks, with the one to the south-west being heavily battered. Beyond the church, there is a lower projecting two-bay hall, and the entire structure is topped with slate roofs.
