How to get here

From the A9/M9 Dunblane roundabout, proceed to the Fountain Road junction in the centre of the village of Bridge of Allan. The Church buildings are a short distance from there on the right at the cross roads of Keir Street and Fountain Road. From the Alloa/hillfoots direction, again proceed to the Fountain Road junction. From Stirling, after crossing Stirling Bridge, turn left at the traffic lights, continue over a level crossing towards Bridge of Allan, pass a roundabout with fountain and column and after a short distance the church buildings will be found on the left at the Keir Street/Fountain Road junction.

The main buildings include the Sanctuary, Honeyman Hall and Chalmers Hall. The Sanctuary has furniture by Charles Rennie Mackintosh (communion table, pulpit, organ screen and choir stalls). The stained glass windows are recognised as being particularly fine.

John Honeyman of Honeyman and Keppie (Mackintosh's employer) was an elder (equivalent) of the now Parish Church in Bridge of Allan and designed the hall which was then named after him. The Chalmers Suite including the Hall was built to complement the other buildings and incorporates the gable of the Honeyman Hall. It was named in recognition of its link to the erstwhile Bridge of Allan Chalmers Church, a 'Disruption' Free Church of Scotland. Two of the stained glass windows from Chalmers Church are now mounted above the entrance to the Chalmers Hall.

The buildings are a prominent feature of the conservation village of Bridge of Allan.
