The present church is a harled and slate-roofed plain structure, built in 1772. Some of the early dates of monuments in the accompanying graveyard are evidence that there was an earlier church on this site. (The original on this site was reportedly founded in the 14th century. http://www.scottishchurches.org.uk/sites/site/id/7428/name/Parish+Church+Balmaclellan+Balmaclellan+Dumfries+and+Galloway Places of Worship in Scotland).
