Architect: Allan Stevenson. 1908. Plan.

Plans: at Darley Hay Partnership, Ayr.

The T plan church dates from the 12th century and was recorded by RCAHMS on 14 January 2009 prompted by its proposed inclusion in the Buildings of Scotland's Ayrshire volume. The three light east window is of particular importance with its dog-tooth decoration. A north aisle was added to the church in the 18th century. Peter MacGregor Chalmers carried out an extensive restoration in 1919. The church has a veryfine collection of stained glass windows including works by Gordon Webster and Douglas Starchan.
