Parish Church, 1806, probably by W & A Clerk (on early site). Tranquil amongst tall cypresses on a sunlit slope, at the eastern end of the Garioch. Deceptively simple on a near-square plan, in boulder rubble with a tall piend roof. Two large

Gothic windows with original glazing pierce the south wall and are echoed by two pointed doorways in the north wall. Gablets to east and west, the latter with plain bellcote and ball finial. The interior is a wood-lined delight, with coved

ceiling, horseshoe gallery and original ogee-canopied pulpit with precentor's box. Door furniture also original, and bell, 1760, by John Mowat.
