AN A-LISTED former church in Greenock has been put on the market with a six-figure price tag. 

The historic Finnart St Paul's Church on Newark Street is available at offers around £230,000.

Finnart St Paul's, the Old West Kirk and Ardgowan Parish, amalgamated to for Lyle Kirk in 2011.

The Telegraph revealed last year that the premises had been listed as 'pending disposal' by the local presbytery in a draft mission plan. 

The document stated that the funds from the sale of Finnart St Paul's and the Old West Kirk on the Esplanade would be used to cover the costs of repair work at the former Ardgowan Parish building at Union Street.

A listing on Church of Scotland's website suggests the disused premises could be used for a variety of functions. 

It states: "In addition to its current use, could be used, without the necessity of obtaining change of use consent, as a crèche, day nursery, day centre, educational establishment, museum, art gallery or public library.

"There is also potential for a variety of other uses, such as a theatre, cinema or entertainment venue, hospitality and restaurant, retail space or community resource subject to obtaining appropriate consents."
