Former Free Kirk, Main Street, New Deer
Dating from ca. 1885 in the 'asymmetric planning' style advocated by the Camden Society (https://archive.org/details/fewwordstochurch00camb ) and perhaps inspired by Gilcomston Free Kirk in Aberdeen: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3500405 . It is now a school/community hall. The K6 telephone box to the left looks derelict, although it has a somewhat hopeful 'e-mail, fax, phone' branding on it.

New Deer primary school
The fine original 1840s granite building is just visible behind the 'worthless post-war additions', as the Buildings of Scotland (Pevsner) Guide sardonically puts it.
