The parish church of Errol is on record in the early 13th century but the medieval building had been replaced by the 18th century. An engraving of the church erected in the burial-ground in 1765 shows a large arch-pointed and traceried window incorporated in a small annexe or porch on its S side, suggesting the re-use of earlier material. The 18th century church was taken down when a new parish church (NO22SE 23) was built some 120m to the NNE in 1831. In the burial-ground there is a 17th century coped grave-cover, together with a number of 18th century gravestones. The mutilated effigy of a knight (NO22SE 23.01), probably of 15th century date, which was formerly fixed to the wall, is now in Perth Museum.
