Built in beautiful polished Kenmure sandstone with tall clerestoried nave supported on clustered columns with finely moulded capitals each with carved musical angels. Windows by Norman Macdougall 1905, depicting the four Evangelists, and representations of Christian vertues, flanking Christ in Glory, and John Clark. A church centre with side chapel, offices, extensive halls and restaurant was added in the 1960s. Patio with fountain from Glasgow garden festival.
