Old Parish Church, Bank Street, Portree, Skye, Religious structure in Bank Street, Portree, Scotland.

The Old Parish Church stands on Bank Street with traditional Scottish ecclesiastical design elements and characteristic stained glass windows throughout its structure.

Originally constructed in 1854 as a Free Church by Liverpool architect John Hay, the building transformed into a United Free Church in 1900 and joined the Church of Scotland in 1929.

The church maintains its role as a central gathering place for the Portree community, offering both morning and evening services every Sunday for local congregations.

Visitors can explore the church interior daily between 11:00 am and 3:00 pm during summer months, with regular worship services occurring at 11:00 am and 6:00 pm on Sundays.
