(NT 2685 7648) The manse, which stood at the NE corner of the church, still exists as the offices of Quayside Mills. It is built in two parts, of which the one to the W represents the parsonage of the two canons of Holyrood who served the church, while the E, larger, portion, which covers the entrance to the church, was added after the Reformation. The building as a whole has all the appearance of a late 16th century structure, remodelled towards the end of the 17th century. It is 3 storeys in height and L-shaped on plan. The masonry is of squared rubble; the lowest windows have been altered.
The entrance to the stair, now covered by the extension, is dated 1675 on the lintel.
RCAHMS 1951.
This old manse is in use as one of the mill buildings. The dated lintel still remains.
Visited by OS (B S) 27 November 1975.
