008 | Regarding this old church very little is Known, it is supposed to have been erected sometime in the beginning of the fifteenth Century; A stone built in the gateway bears the date of 1617. The Burial ground by which it is surrounded contains several grave stones evidently of great age, &. it is still used as the Parish Burial Ground. "A part of the South wall of the Old Church, built in 1576 still remains in the Churchyard." New Stat Acct. [Statistical Account]. "The old church stood a little to the north. Of this more ancient structure the statistical account informs us that, "the Church was built in 1576; at least this date is above one of the doors. It is probable, however, that it had only been repaired that year, as there is still a font stone in the east end." This "font stone" was probably the Piscina - a font in the east end of a church would have been an anomaly at anytime antecedent to this period." Pratt's Buchan |
