The church is of stone construction neatly presented under a dark grey slate roof and built in c1841 by local mason, David Crow, to a design by James Nairn of Balloch. Interior redesigned in c1894 contains an early Christian cross-shaft showing a bearded figure, 8th or 9th century, removed from Killevin Burial Ground, stained glass c1924 by William Meikle & Sons, Glasgow.
From its slightly elevated position, Cumlodden Parish Church enjoys far reaching and breath-taking views out across Loch Fyne and beyond.

Gardens

The gardens are beautifully maintained with an assortment of mature trees, all of which is bounded by a shallow stone wall.
Situation
Cumlodden Parish Church is set on the edge of Loch Fyne at the southern edge of the coastal ribbon settlement of Furnace in Argyll & Bute.
Furnace is located on the A83 which connects Inveraray and Lochgilphead. Furnace has a shop/post office and a weekend bar in the Village Hall. Medical services are provided from the medical centre in Inveraray, which covers residents of Furnace and Minard. Inveraray (8.3 miles to the north-east) and Lochgilphead (16.3 miles to the south-west) provide an excellent range of further local amenities, shops and professional services. The district is well served by both primary and secondary education with a reliable bus service.
Glasgow, about 71.7 miles away, offers a full range of higher and further education services, as well as all the cultural and professional services normally connected with a major city. The A83 and A82 offer swift access to central Scotland with the closest rail link at Arrochar (34 miles) providing access to the main west coast line to Glasgow. The village is also served by a bus service offering daily direct connections to Glasgow and to Campbeltown on the Mull of Kintyre; and daily to Oban via Inveraray or Lochgilphead.
The locality of Loch Fyne-side offers much in the way of outdoor pursuits including cross-country cycle routes, hill walks and challenging climbs; Brainport Heritage Trail and Solar Alignment just a short walk along the shores of Loch Fyne towards Minard Castle; the famous Crarae National Trust Gardens; events and entertainment in Minard and Furnace village halls; a cross-country drive to Loch Awe; and Auchindrain Museum reached by the River Leacainn Walk out of Furnace.
The area is very well supplied with golf courses. The nearest are the 9-hole course at Inveraray and full courses at Lochgilphead, Oban and, an hour and a half away, near Campbeltown on the Mull of Kintyre, two major courses: the Old Tom Morris designed Machrihanish course and the Machrihanish Dunes course, an ecologically sensitive challenge and the first ever to be built on a Site of Special Scientific Interest.’
Mid-Argyll presents some of the most dramatic seascapes and landscapes on the West Coast of Scotland. Sea, river and loch fishing is easily available, as are a number of organised private and commercial low ground shoots as well as deer-stalking. There are excellent opportunities for boating/yachting on Loch Fyne, leading not only to the Clyde estuary but also to the Crinan Canal across the Mull of Kintyre to the Hebrides and the Atlantic. The Lochgair and Minard Moorings Group offer mooring opportunities for prospective boat owners.
