(NO 2906 3661). Lundie parish church belonged to the priory of St Andrews, and was dedicated to St Lawrence. During recent renovations it was discovered that the church was of Norman origin. Not much remains of the original building - only the ashlar walls and a narrow window situated near the E end of the N wall. The apse appears to have been taken down in 1786, during some alterations, and the chancel arch (still seen externally) built up. A tomb was built on the site of the apse. The church was small, measuring c. 40' x 18'6". The top fragment of an aumbry, of late date, was found built into a wall near the church.

D MacGibbon and T Ross 1896

The external features of this church are wholly modern.

Visited by OS (JLD) 25 April 1958.
