This cruciform church probably retains in the nave part of the pre-reformation church dedicated to St Drostan. The west tower was added in 1704 and in the 18th century there were at least three phases of repair and addition creating the present plan. In 1831-2 the east and west galleries were installed. During a scheme of repair in 1891 a new pulpit and pews were installed and the south aisle was converted into a porch. In the graveyard the sculptor John Nicolson of Nybster created a memorial to his mother dated 1868.
