It was built in 1921, as testified by the foundation stone in the north wall of the angular chancel apse.  The architects were Dick Peddie and Walker Todd.  The church was built in such a way that it could easily be extended to the west, which now gives it a strange unfinished appearance.  To the south the wooden hall and connecting passage prove a sharp contrast to the stone main building.  The church is entered through a beautifully detailed and heavily buttressed porch, under an arched doorway. 

Small stained glass windows in the apse provide colour and light.  One was donated by Mr G Gould, art master at the Bo’ness Academy, and was made by his students.  The glass in the west gable depicts the town’s main industries – coal mining, whaling and maritime trade.  The stone of the chancel arch is left bare to contrast with the groin-plastered vaulted ceiling of the nave and chancel.
