Full Description
Parish church built in gothic style in 1821, and burial ground. It is rectangular in plan, harled with granite margins, a slated roof and pinnacled buttresses set diagonally on gable angles. The principal, east, gable, has a small central pointed arched doorway, above which a string course supports a group of three lancet windows in the centre of the gable, and a small quatrefoil opening in the gablehead. There are four large pointed arch windows resting on a narrow stringcourse in the south elevation. There have been more recent alterations to the west end, the original gable mirroring that at the east end. There is a small rectangular bellcote on the apex, and a date of 1821 is inscribed into the base of the bellcote. A stained glass window and bronze plaque commemorating those from parish of Keithhall and Kinkell was relocated to this church in 2019 from the former Keithhall and Kinkell Church (NJ82SW0053). A hall was added to the west end in 2003. Now known as Fintray Kinellar Keithhall Church.
