_2050 Erskine Community Halls "<p>Designed by William Black of Messrs A. &amp; W. Black, architects, Falkirk, the Erskine Church was built in 1905. It is in the Gothic style of architecture of the Perpendicular period, with a square tower at the south-west corner some 90 ft tall. The south gable presents a five light tracery window and twin doors to the street, approached by an imposing broad flight of steps.<\/p><p><br \/>The church is cruciform in plan, with nave, aisles, chancel and two shallow transepts. There are galleries over the end of the nave and each of the transepts. A creamy sandstone from Eastfield Quarry was used.<\/p><p><br \/>Internally the bases of the pillars are of freestone but the walls and ceiling have been finished with lathe and plaster. Behind the church and communicating with it is a hall to accommodate 200 people, a smaller hall, vestry, session room, ladies room, waiting room, kitchen and offices. The total cost of the building was put at \u00a39248.<\/p><p><br \/>The building ceased functioning as a church in 2014 and is used as community halls. It now provides a great venue for functions.<\/p><p><br \/>Courtesy of The Erskine Community Halls.<\/p>" Organization "<p>Designed by William Black of Messrs A. &amp; W.
