090 This is the ruins of an old church situated in a grave yard which is still used as a place of internment by the parishoners. All inquiries which it is usual to make about such objects as this church, have been made but without throwing any light on its early history. By Mr Anderson it is considered that it was at one time used as a place of worship by the Roman Catholics. All that now remains of it are the four upright walls without a roof.

The church of Crathy, though Kept in repair at the joint expense of all the heritors
of the two parishes, the Earl of Fife excepted, is in very bad order, and too small.
The church-yard wall is in the same situation. Old Statistical Account.

The church of Crathie was rebuilt on a new site, and in a very eligible situation,
in 1805, and was finished in 1806. New Statistical Account.
