St Lesmo's Church

St Lesmo’s Church is a chapel dating from around 1870, built incorporating an arched gateway and utilising stone from a 17th-century farmhouse called Braeloine Farmhouse. The chapel originally comprised a single-storey, three-bay rectangular structure, with a late 19th-century addition, likely designed by George Truefitt, extending to the southwest, and a tower added in 1937 to the northwest. The exterior is constructed of granite rubble with terracotta “cherry-cocking”, with a roughly finished, snecked, rough-faced southwest addition and finely finished margins elsewhere. It features a rubble base course, long and short quoins, chamfered reveals, and a timber eaves course.

The southeast elevation, which serves as the main entrance front, is near-symmetrical, displaying regular fenestration in each bay. A 17th-century round-headed arch with roll moulding sits on the outer left, featuring a decorative pink and grey granite floor. Behind this is the later 19th-century addition. The entrance doorway has stop-chamfered reveals and a boarded timber door with iron studs, while a bipartite, pointed-arched window is set in the single bay to the left, and a further bay is set to the outer left.

The northeast elevation is symmetrical, featuring a gabled form with two small windows set into the gablehead and a replacement granite cross at the apex.

The northwest elevation is asymmetrical, presenting a four-bay facade. A window is located in the penultimate bay to the left, and another in the bay to the outer left. A piend-roofed tower, constructed in 1937, projects forward from the penultimate bay on the right, alongside a slate-roofed porch with a modern boarded timber door. A window is situated in the re-entrant angle to the right, and another in the bay to the right. A two-bay late 19th-century addition extends to the outer right, featuring a bipartite pointed-arched window on the left bay and a bowed bay advancing to the right.

The southwest elevation is gabled, with the ground floor largely obscured by the advanced two-bay, late 19th-century addition. A quadripartite pointed-arched window is set to the left, and a pointed-arched window to the right, with the outer right obscured by a tree. A bell is mounted on a timber panel reading "S. LESMO/S" in the gablehead.

The interior features a Glen Tanar granite flagged floor, a granite altar, rustic timber pews, roof, and lectern. Leaded stained glass windows are present, and are barred or protected by wire mesh. The roof is grey slate with a stone ridge, and the late 19th-century addition has a grass roof. Stone skews with simple skewputs are also present, along with a coped circular wallhead stack on the late 19th-century addition. Cast-iron rainwater goods are in place.

A low granite rubble boundary wall surrounds the chapel.
