Note:
"The age of the Church must, from its structure,
and the height to which the Surrounding
burying ground has accumulated above its foundations, be
very great; but there are no means of ascertaining the exact
period at which it was built. The lintel of a door, which

been made to the original edifice, has 1619 inscribed it." New Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account]
