Barn Church, Culloden

The Barn Church is a church building in Culloden that comprises two sections: the original structure now used as a church hall, and a modern extension where main services take place. The building operates under Church of Scotland administration and provides multiple spaces for large congregations and smaller group activities.

The structure was originally built as a tithe barn for the Culloden House estate. Before the Battle of Culloden in 1746, it sheltered Jacobite soldiers.

The congregation gathers regularly for worship and community events, bringing together residents from Culloden, Balloch, Smithton, Westhill, and Cradlehall. The space serves as a hub for local gatherings and religious celebrations throughout the year.

The site is located in Highland and operates under Church of Scotland administration with facilities designed for different uses. Visitors should be aware that services and activities are scheduled at various times throughout the week.

The original building features distinctive slit windows that once served a defensive purpose. Notably, parallel doors create air circulation patterns that were essential for grain processing work.
