Parish Hall
I think this is, or from the look of it was, the parish kirk hall of St Vigeans. It does not enhance the view from the mound on which the kirk stands.

St. Vigeans Churchyard
A most awkward graveyard as the church is built on a mound. The Cargill gravestone bears an interesting inscription :
" Tho' man in health at morn arise
and joyful view the light,
Perhaps a stiffened corpse he lies
[by] the return of night."
