Description
St Andrew’s Parish Church is a plain gothic building dating from 1879 to 1880. It is constructed of mixed rubble with sandstone dressings, and features a bellcote on the east gable. While the church itself is considered to have little architectural interest, it incorporates a small 17th-century bellcote on the gable of the session room. This bellcote is distinguished by a rich cluster of finials and bears a stone inscription with the date 1621. Some 18th and early 19th century stones are present in the churchyard, but are unremarkable. A bell produced in 1758 by Mowat is housed within the church. The parish was originally a detached part of Banffshire. Records referencing the 1621 bellcote are found in the Old Statistical Account volume 11 and the New Statistical Account volume 13, page 100. Information regarding the present church is documented in the Third Statistical Account page 623, and further details appear in the Proceedings of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland volume 90, page 152. The building remains in ecclesiastical use.
