The Church is situated about a mile and a half from the east end of the parish and about four and a half miles from the west end. It was built in 1793 and is remarkable for the beauty of its situation. It is one of the most elegant and commodious county churches in Scotland, and is seated for upwards of 1000 persons. During the last few years it has undergone several extensive repairs and alterations which reflect the highest credit on the liberality, taste and judgement of the parish.
