:''Not to be confused with Kirk of the Hills.'' Kirk in the Hills〔Kirk: Scots for "Church."〕 Presbyterian (1958) is a church located in Bloomfield Township, Michigan. ==Overview== Architect George D. Mason designed the present church. Wirt Rowland had made preliminary designs for the church before World War II, but Rowland died in 1946 and the Mason design was not based on the Rowland sketches. Services were held in the Undercroft beginning in 1952 and continued during the construction of the church until a disastrous fire destroyed most of the roof. The Church held its first services in the sanctuary on November 23, 1958. Kirk in the Hills is modeled after Scotland's Melrose Abbey. Set on of beautifully landscaped lakeside grounds, Kirk in the Hills constitutes a fine example of Gothic architecture in the United States. ''Kirk'' is the Scottish word for ''Church''.
