NS 382 689 A geophysical survey and programme of grave recording were carried out, 20–30 September 2013. The survey of the interior and kirkyard of the medieval kirk located a robbed out foundation trench inside the kirk and two large sub-circular features in the kirkyard. These features probably relate to earlier ecclesiastical activity on the site. An area of lower resistance on the N side of the kirk may be a grave cut, whilst two areas of magnetic disturbance may indicate the presence of multiple burials. The grave recording identified a total of 58 grave monuments and two possible grave footings.
