Description
An account of the resource
<p>The present building was completed in 1796, and extensively altered in 1906. The sanctuary with pitch pine dado, now runs east to west, with painted Corinthian columns supporting a U-plan timber panelled gallery. At the west end there is a stair to a raised half-octagonal oak pulpit, flanked by polygonal organ casings and stained glass windows. A two-tiered copper chandelier (circa 1800), believed to be of Dutch origin, is centered beneath a ceiling rose.</p><p>The church is situated within a graveyard which also contains St Mary's Church, the early 18th century Bute Mausoleum and several graves of interest, including a relative of Napoleon Bonaparte.</p><p>A new Church Centre connected to the north side of the existing building was completed in 2009.</p>
