Dun NO 667 598 NO65NE 2
The old parish church of Dun stood within its burial-ground on a steep-sided promontory on the W side of the Den of Dun. After it went out of ecclesiastical use in the mid-19th century the church was rebuilt as a mausoleum, but this evidently incorporates substantial portions of the earlier structure.
