Dirleton Kirk, Category A listed church building in Dirleton, Scotland
The stone church features round-headed windows under low eaves, with a Gothic tower crowned by decorative pinnacles added in 1836.
Following Parliament's approval in 1612, Dirleton Kirk replaced the former St Andrews Church at Gullane, which suffered from encroaching beach sands.
The stained glass window designed by Margaret Chilton depicts St Francis among ninety different animals, representing the connection between nature and faith.
The parish serves multiple communities including Dirleton, Fenton Barns, Archerfield, Kingston, and the Westerdunes district of North Berwick.
Since its establishment in 1612, only twenty ministers have served at Dirleton Kirk, demonstrating long-term spiritual leadership within the community.
