Crianlarich Parish Church (Church Of Scotland) Including Gatepiers And Boundary Walls, Crianlarich

Crianlarich Parish Church, built in 1901, is a notable example of the work of architect Thomas Ross. This small Gothic church features a harled exterior with red sandstone ashlar dressings, buttressing, cill and eaves courses, and angle margins. It is prominently located in Crianlarich and retains much of its original character, distinguished by its acute proportions and excellent detailing.

The west gable showcases a geometric window with quatrefoil details, flanked by buttresses and topped with a small stone cross. The south elevation has a single bay, with a lower vestry that has a gable-headed window adjoining at right angles. An angled entrance is located in the re-entrant angle, featuring a two-leaf timber door and a timber canopy with a pitched roof and finial detail. The east elevation is blank, while the north elevation has two trefoil-headed windows beside a buttress. The building is equipped with cast-iron rainwater goods.

Inside, the church has a single bay nave without aisles, featuring an open timber roof supported by a kingpost truss. The interior is whitewashed, with a boarded timber dado and simple coloured glass in the square leaded windows. Boarded timber pews are present, along with an oak font and communion table with trefoil detailing, and a timber pulpit.

The church is accompanied by gatepiers and boundary walls to the north, consisting of a pair of rubble gatepiers and rubble walling, with a section of rubble wall extending from north to south. The roof is made of slate.
