Title

St Anne's Parish Church (1)

Description

This beautiful Church was designed by Peter McGregor Chalmers, a leading Scottish ecclesiastical architect. The aim of the Church's design was to make the stones speak, accomplished by engraving texts of Scripture on the walls, and carving the capitals of pillars and doorways with meaningful symbols. Take a few moments in the centre aisle to view the building: Regard the apse, the organ, the pulpit and the youth chapel, around the stained-glass windows, thirteen of which were designed by notable Scottish craftsman Gordon Webster.
