Ecclesmachan Parish Kirk

The Kirk of St Machan traces its history back to the 12th century, though it has been extensively rebuilt over the years. The two arched doorways on the south elevation, one now built up, date from about 1200, and are echoed by the round-headed later windows. A gable of the former manse can be seen to the right of the kirk.
