| GLENORCHY PARISH CHURCH, DALMALLY | ![]() |
| The Church When the Earl of Breadalbane provided the money for a new church at Dalmally, early in the 19th century, he also instructed his favourite architect, James Eliot, to design it. This was done in the fashionable Gothic Revival style and the result was an outstanding building of great architectural interest. The main building is octagonal in design with a fine tower which is a particular mark of the Earls generosity. The building has a lovely setting overlooking the River Orchy with views to Ben Cruachan and Ben Lui. Many of the messages left in the Visitors Book remark on the tranquillity of the building, making it perfect for worship and prayer. |
