The property comprises a substantial detached building, constructed largely of stone, with a pitched slated roof, with small extensions to the rear constructed of brick, rendered externally and having mono-pitched roofs.  Access to the building is via two large entrance doorways formed to the front elevation, with three additional doors formed to the rear. 
 
Internally, the property is subdivided to form:
 
Basement floor:
Storage/boiler room

First Floor:
Elders room and office
 
Balcony:
Upper level balcony (seated)
 
The main worship area has a raked suspended timber floor with wooden pews fitted to part of the floor area, beyond which is a raised chancel area incorporating pulpit and church organ.  The walls are plastered with double height ceiling formed of lath and plaster.  There is excellent natural daylighting via large windows to both elevations, enhanced by pendant light fittings to the ceiling.  Access to the vestry is from the south-east of the worship area, with this area being formed within one of the rear extensions.
 
To the west of the main worship area and formed off the hallway is a store, kitchen and access to the basement boiler room.  The kitchen is formed to a basic standard with floor mounted units and a stainless-steel sink fitted, and off this area is a toilet containing basic WC and WHB.
 
The stair from the hallway leads to the first floor office rooms and balcony area.  The office rooms are formed at either side of the stairwell and are finished in traditional materials with timber floors, plastered/lath and plaster walls and lath and plaster ceilings, with both areas benefitting from natural daylighting.
 
The gallery area is raked and fitted with timber pews.
 
Heating within the building is via a gas combination boiler formed within the basement boiler room.
 
Alternative uses
The building would represent an excellent opportunity for conversion to residential use.  Alternatively, the existing buildings could be utilised in their existing form by a church organisation,
youth organisation, sports club, dance company, charity or similar type operator.
 
In addition, there is potential to convert for a number of commercial uses e.g. children’s nursery, craft centre, art gallery etc.
