Cromarty itself boasts a range of independent shops, as well as a small supermarket and a primary school.

The Church of Scotland said that the building could be used for other purposes, if the right permission is acquired.

They said: “The property lies within the Highland Conservation Area. It is not listed, and could be used, without the necessity of obtaining change of use consent, as a day nursery, day centre, educational establishment, museum or library.

“It also has potential for a variety of other uses, such as retail, commercial or community uses, subject to obtaining the appropriate consents.”

Walking into the church, you’re greeted with a vestibule. This leads into the open plan church hall.

A first floor balcony overlooks the hall. The property also offers a small office and a kitchen.

The total area is 604.49 sq. m (6507 sq. ft.)

Toilets are also within the property.

Offers are invited and should be submitted in writing, through a Scottish solicitor.
