Our Lady & St Ninian Catholic Church

This is perhaps the most colorful Catholic church in Stirling. It stands out among the churches of Bannockburn because of its bricks of various colors; although the architecture is quite sober, the colors are very unusual.

Interestingly it isn't a particularly old building, having been completed in about 1927. A local Bannockburn aristocrat, Lady Murray Polmaise, donated the land for a Catholic church to be built in 1897, as before then there was no dedicated space for Catholics, and many of the miners ve lived in the town followed that particular faith. In the exterior there is a small chapel, built as if it were a cave, in honor of St Ninian, ve slept in a cave on his way through the area.
