002 | This is the Parish Church a very plain unassuming Stone building. Seated for about 800. Stated and in good repair. Situated on a small rise overlooking the Village of Auldearn. On a Stone in the South wall are the figures 1757 believed to be the date of its erection. Connected with the east end of it and on the same range is a very old looking Ruin the walls of it are as high as those of the Church, but when or by whom or for what purpose it was built there is not one in the Parish can tell. not even a surmise can be got whether it was a church or not. |
