(NJ 7044 2638) Logie Durno Church (NR).
OS 6" map, (1957)
The church of Logie-Durno was dedicated to St Mary and belonged to the Abbey of Lindores (Scott 1915-61). It became disused at the beginning of the 17th century when the parish of Logie Durno was united with Chapel of Garioch (ONB 1867).
H Scott et al 1915-61; Ordnance Survey Name Book (ONB) 1867.
The ruins of Logie Durno Church, completely ivy-covered, measure c.19.0m by c.6.2m internally with walls c.1.0m wide and c.1.0m maximum height. A low turf-covered mound extending c.9.2m from the E end probably represents the remains of a chancel. A mound at the W end suggests that it was apsidal ended but it is too thickly covered with ivy to be certain.
The burial ground is still in use.
