Clackmannanshire
Designed by William W Friskin, this church replaced the building in Clackmannan Road and was constructed in dark brown brick. Still modern in appearance though traditional in form, it has a huge east gable with a five-light window and a belfry with narrow, vertical louvred slits.
The nave is spacious and bright, the narrow aisles supported on elegant, tall octagonal columns. In the Lady Chapel is a richly coloured, three-light stained glass window by the talented glass artist Sadie McLellan (1914-2007) in the Dalles de Verre technique developed in France in the 1930s, where the glass is cast in a mould, broken into pieces and the design set into a resin compound instead of lead cames. This technique still looks startling modern. Many of the furnishings of the church were donated by various parishioners. Some of the church vestments may be on display.
