Details Parish church built in 1684 and enlarged 1767, and associated graveyard. It is early Gothic in style in its present form, T-plan, harled with old surface granite dressings at the jambs and dark granite voussoirs above. There are three pointed windows on the north side with wood tracery, and an asymmetrical bellcote. The church was partially reconstructed in 1861 by William Smith, and there were further alterations in 1886 by Matthews and Mackenzie. The organ was installed in 1897. The interior was recast in 1954.
