Sibbalds Fife & Kinross		 Church (remains of) In the centre of the Old Burying Ground east from Kinross is a square with the date 1675 on it which was the home of the family of Bruce of Arnot but now belongs to Sir Graham Montgomery. Mr Baird informed me that this is the "Aisle " of the Parish Church which once stood here, He says it is impossible to point out the site of any other part of the Church. " The Paroch Church " of Kinross stands a little to the east of the town upon the loch.

Before 1742 the parish church stood within the Old Burying ground immediately beside the Lake . It was then removed from this situation to another at the west of the town which gradually extending its dimensions came at length to place the church in its centre.
