Fochabers, The Square, Bellie Parish Church, Category A listed church in The Square, Fochabers, Scotland.

The church features a neoclassical design with Roman Doric columns, a square clock stage from 1798, and an octagonal belfry topped with a copper weathervane.

The construction of Bellie Kirk occurred between 1795 and 1798 under architect John Baxter, replacing the existing Bellie Old Church for the 4th Duke of Gordon.

Three stained glass windows installed in 1998 represent different religious themes, including growth, harvest, and the Holy Spirit at Pentecost.

The church building contains movable seating instead of fixed pews, modern audio-visual equipment for live streaming, and a fully equipped community hall.

The 2010 renovation completely changed the interior layout by rotating the sanctuary 180 degrees and introducing new technological infrastructure for contemporary worship needs.
