Details Church and burial-ground. The church, built in 1838 by John Smith, is rectangular in plan, of rough hewn granite, with four slender round-arched windows on the east flank and a north gable gently elaborated by a projecting centre and spiky bellcote. The interior is largely original with marble tablets to Farquharsons of Whitehouse from 1838 onwards. There is a simple iron and granite mortsafe in the kirkyard. The churchyard contains three Commonwealth war graves, one of the First World War, two from the Second World War.
