Only the gable end and bellcote remain of the kirk remain, probably built in 1769. The fine renaissance bellcote (dated 1613) must come from an earlier church on the same site. The kirk fell into ruin after the replacement church on Western Road was built in 1883. C-listed (LB9065): http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB9065 .
