I cannot find any information of its date, but it is considered to be of a very early one, there are no traces left of it now. A sculptured stone, disinterred in the present parish Grave Yard marKs its site; It was taken from under the walls of the Old Church about four feet under ground and placed on the surface, so that both these antiquities occupy the same place near the centre of the burial ground; there are some raised figures on this stone, the Appearance of which are so very indefinite, that an explanation cannot be given. "The stone at Inveravon lies in the churchyard of the parish, and is said to have been found under the foundation of the old church. This parish was dedicated to St Peter."

[River] Spey Spey River Spey (The) Spey Estate Plan Mr John Fleming Factor Mr Alexander Grant Balnellan Blacks Map of Scotland Robertson's Map of Banffshire 1822 New Statistical Acoount. Fullarton's Gazetteer Old Statistical Account 023 ; 029 This river chiefly forms the boundary between the Counties of Banff and Elgin. At the part which runs through the Ph [Parish] of Inveravon it has changed its course on two occasions during heavy floods. It left the easternmost bed (as shewn on the traces of 23.11) in the year 1768 and from the centre bed it cut its way through the course it now follows in 1829. It is feared that if it reverts back to the first course it will destroy the church of Inveravon. The destruction of the church is fortold by Thomas the Ryhmer. This river rises in the braes of Badenoch in Inverness-shire and after a course of upwards of 100 miles it empties itself into the Moray Firth at Speymouth. There is no part of it navigable.
