Kinnoull Parish Church, Category B listed church in Perth, Scotland
Kinnoull Parish Church is a stone building located on Dundee Road with characteristic features of Scottish ecclesiastical architecture, including a prominent entrance and bell tower. The structure displays the typical stonework and functional design of its period.
The present building was completed in 1827 by architect William Burn, replacing an earlier church from 1779 that had stood at a different location across the River Tay. This relocation reflected the area's changing development and growth during the early 19th century.
The church serves as a meeting place for the local community gathered for regular worship and significant life events. People here mark their most important spiritual moments and family occasions within these walls.
The church is accessible via well-maintained roads and has parking facilities nearby for visitors. Inside, there are designated spaces where people can sit comfortably during their visit.
Beneath the church floor lies a vault containing a memorial to George Hay, First Earl of Kinnoull, showing him in his Lord Chancellor robes. This hidden burial chamber preserves an important connection to the region's aristocratic past.
