Details Former parish church of Glenlivet, depicted on the OS 1st edition map, where it is annotated as 'Church (Quod Sacra)'. It appears to have been built in the 1820s but considerably altered in the 1870s. It was a chapel of ease. There is no associated graveyard. The church is on a T-plan, built of coursed rubble with sandstone dressings and slate roof. The principal elevation is the west gable, with small central doorway flanked by small lancet windows at ground floor level, and a round window above the doorway. The gable is surmounted by an impressive bellcote, octagonal in section with small lancet openings. Now converted to a house. It is not known whether the fine stained glass windows of the church have been retained.
