St Bride’s Church (alternatively, Saint Brigid of Kildare Church) is an Episcopal parish church in Onich, North Ballachulish in the Scottish Highlands. The listed structure was built in 1874 to a design by the architect J. Garden Brown of London.[1] Adjacent to the church is the St. Bride's Parsonage, designed by Ross & Macbeth in 1891.[2]

The church is noted for its interior inspired by the Arts & Crafts movement with attractive floor tiling and stained glass windows. There is an impressive stone cross in the churchyard commemorating Alexander Chinnery-Haldane, Bishop of Argyll and the Isles.[3]
