Former Holywood Church of Scotland, Holywood, Dumfriesshire

The church was built in 1779 to the west of the abbey using stone from the abbey. Three years later two school houses were built. The manse and church had repaired work done in 1821. East and west porches were added in 1864. The ceiling was also strenthened annd the interior re-modelled and refurbished. Alexander Fraser was the architect for the works. Internal works were carried out in the 1950s and John Young was the architect. The church was linked in 1962 with Dumfries Lincluden Church. Sometime prior to 1986 the gallery was closed off to create a meeting room. The church closed after 1999.
