The old parish church of Craig stood on a slight eminence within the present burial-ground on Rossie Island. The church was dedicated to St Braoch in 1243, but was ruinous by 1573, and no traces of the building are now visible. The site is notable on account of the three early cross-slabs (NO75NW 2.01) that have been found in the vicinity of the church. A Class II and a Class III stone are both in the Montrose Museum, but the present location of the other Class III slab is unknown.
