There are no visible remains of the medieval parish church which stood on or close to the site now occupied by the present church (1820). Within the burial-ground there are a number of 18th century gravestones, the Whitson of Parkhill mortuary enclosure and beside it that of the Rattrays of Craighall. The prebend of Rattray is on record in 1169.
