002; 003; 007; 008 | The parish of Drainie is in the Presbytery of Elgin, Synod of Moray. It comprehends the ancient and united parishes of Kinneddar and Ogston. Ogston was disjoined from St. Andrews and annexed to Kinneddar in 1642. The church of the united parish was built about 1675, near the mansion house, and on the estate of Drainie, and thereby gave name to the united Parish. The parish of Drainie is bounded on the north by the Moray Firth, on the east by the parish of Urquhart, on the south by the parishes of St. Andrews Lhanbryd and Spynie; and on the west by the parish of Duffus. There are no detached portions of the parish of Drainie nor are there any detached portions of any other parish situated within it. |
