Cathcart Trinity Church is one of two Church of Scotland parish churches in the Cathcart area of Glasgow.
The church was designed by William Gardner Rowan in a richly decorated Neo-Gothic style. The foundation stone was laid on 8 April 1893, with the building being completed a year later, officially opening on 3 May 1894. The old church hall was the original church, having been built in 1889. Another hall, named the Buchanan Hall, was built in 1912.[1]
