Church Overview
Fine example of a rural parish kirk, with outstanding views across open countryside. The site has been a place of worship since the early 12th century when David I established the Chapel of 'Pedynane'. The present church dates principally from the 18th century with an earlier belfry of 1692 and an incised cross slab re-used as a relieving lintel. Interesting walled burial ground. Acquired by the Scottish Redundant Churches Trust in 2000 with the generous support of local people.
