St Leonards in the Fields & Trinity
5 minute walk from Perth station · Stirling, Central and Fife · Free entry
St Leonard's-in-the-Fields is an impressive Category A listed Church of Scotland building located in Perth. This Gothic Revival landmark sits on Marshall Place, overlooking the northern end of the South Inch.
Designed by J. J. Stevenson and built between 1882 and 1885, the church features a semi-octagonal apse inspired by the 15th-century architecture of Stirling’s Church of the Holy Rude. Interestingly, the site once housed the wooden studio of photographer Magnus Jackson.
Inside, visitors can see an organ built in 1881 by Henry Bryceson. Originally located in Edinburgh, it was moved here in 1985 and is now housed in a modern ash case.
