The current church was built in 1829, as a replacement for the older parish church nearby which was too small, and in need of extensive repairs.
Canmore has a number of photos and architectural drawings of the church.
OPRs (Old Parish Registers) are available from 1679 (Births) and 1668 (Marriages and Deaths). The early births (up to 1706) are largely damaged or missing. Deaths (or Mortcloth Dues) also have a significant number of omissions.
The NRS website provides more details on the available records, and gaps and omissions.
