In times when more miracles were supposed to be wrought than at present, and pilgrimages more in vogue, it was said to be famous for the cure of barreness. But the well and its virtues have been sacrificed to what the creed of these times would have considered a sordid and unhallowed agriculture. Drains and ditches have not left the pilgrim a drop to drink." Stat: Acct: [Statistical Account] of Scotland [(Hadd: [Haddinton]) page 31

The interior retains, with little attection, its original form." (Fullarton's Gazetteer of Scot. [Scotland] Vol [Volume] 2)

OS1/15/33/53 [Page] 53 Extract From New Statistical Account of Scotland (Haddingtonshire) Page 38. [note] See Page 36 The Gospel was introduced into East Lothian in the sixth century. St Baldred, the disciple of Kentigern or St Mungo, being the first Christian Apostle, fixed his cell at Tynninghame, where a monastery was afterwards erected, but his pious labours extended far and wide, - the boundaries of his Pastoral care being thus described by Simeon of Durham, "Tota terra qua pertinct ad monasterium sancti Baltheri quod vocatur Tyningham a Lambermore usque ad Esceruuthe," so that his ministry embraced the whole length of the county, from Lammermoor to InveresK. All accounts concur in representing this early and zealous propagator of the Christian faith as being held in extreme veneration when living; and several of the conterminous parishes are said to have been contended for his body when he was dead. But we leave the miracles ascribed to St Baldred, and the stories about his boat and cradle, (rock on the shore and within sea marK) to those who are inclined to clear the obscurities, and investigate the legends of the sixth century. Suffice it to say of him, what Archbishop Spottiswood says of his instructor, St Mungo "That he appears to have been a man worthy to have been a subject of truth to posterity, not of fables and fictions, as the legends of monks have made him." He died in the year 606. Anlaf, the Dane, spoiled the Church of St. Baldred, and burnt the village of Tynninghame in the year 941. "This, (says Chalmers,) is a very early notice of the KirK-town of Tynninghame (Continued) T.O [Turn Over] [Continued on Page 54)
OS1/15/33/54 [Page] 54 In Form 136 [Continued from Page 53] (Extract Continued) The manor and patronage of the Church of Tynninghame came in after ages into the hands of the bishops of St Andrews; and seem, on the erection of the College of St Mary's, to have been conferred on that College. But how much soever that learned body may have been gainers by this liberality, the parishoners of Tynninghame appear to have gained but little, for in 1565, a complaint was made by them to the General Assembly, that though they paid their tythes to the new college, neither word nor sacrament were dispensed among them . The tithes still belong to the college, but the lands and lordship of Tynninghame since the year 1628, and the patronage more recently, to the Earl of Haddington. All that now remains of the ancient Church of Tynninghame, which had been formerly the privilege of sanctuary, are two elegant arches of Anglo Saxon architecture, between which is the cemetery of the Haddington family
