The Small kirk situated at Tresta on the small island of Fetlar in the the Shetland Islands


Fetlar's kirk is located near Tresta Beach backed by Papil Water and was built in 1790. It is a plain grey harled box with a bellcote at the top of the east gable and a small annex on the west end. It replaced an earlier church - possibly a series of earlier churches dating back to Viking times - and a old memorial stone with an unclear date is built into the south wall of the annex.
