NJ 66628 64522 A standing building survey was carried out in the old churchyard at Inverboyndie, on 15 February 2019.

The building comprises a minor part of the Old Manse steading and does not represent the quality of what must have been a moderately large 19th-century steading. The building may have been a small cart shed as the spacing between the vertical posts of the E wall is consistent with the width of known cart bays on other steadings. It is possible that it related to the Old Manse itself, perhaps as a gig shed, rather than to the agricultural aspect of the farm.
