Wellpark Mid Kirk, Greenock - a photo on Flickriver

Wellpark Mid Kirk, Greenock

            Neoclassical church built 1760. Design for façade supplied by Lord Cathcart (apparently obtained in Bristol). Designer of body of church apparently by James Ewing, builder. Galleries, seating by Anderson and Watt; spire built 1787. Rectangular plan with tetrastyle Ionic portico and 146' spire. 

Ecclesiastical building in use as such. Formerly known as the “Toon Kirk”, now Wellpark Mid Kirk after amalgamation of congregations. Its iconic portico and steeple were modelled on St Martin-in-the-Fields Church, Trafalgar Square, London. During the Greenock Blitz of 6-7 May 1941 the Mid Kirk was damaged and the lead glass windows shattered. They were replaced in 1951.
