The original St Conan's Kirk was built between 1881 and 1886, and comprised the nave and part of the choir of the later church that visitors see today. Walter Campbell had grander plans, however, and in 1907 he began work on a much more ambitious church. In the Bruce Chapel, a larger than life effigy lies over a chamber containing a bone of Robert the Bruce, brought here from Dunfermline Abbey.
