Tranent Parish Church, Church of Scotland building in Tranent, East Lothian.
The stone church features traditional ecclesiastical design elements with stained glass windows and stands in a central location of Tranent.
The present church structure, completed in 1800 by John Simpson, replaced earlier buildings dating back to 1145 when Thor, an archdeacon, established the first church.
The church incorporates Scottish Protestant architectural elements and maintains regular Sunday services where children participate in age-specific activities during worship.
