(NO 1283 0182) Church (NR) (Remains of)

OS 6" map (1938)

Before 1742 the parish church of Kinross stood within the old burial ground immediately beside Loch Leven.

G Buchanan 1938

The church is mentioned in a charter of AD 1314.

Reg Magni Sig Reg Scot 1306-1424

No trace of this church now remains. Its site is probably that now occupied by the mortuary chapel at NO 1284 0181. This chapel bears the date '1675', but this appears to be a modern insertion.

Visited by OS (WDJ) 19 December 1963
