Church History

It was founded in 1722.

After several years of little use, the Church of Scotland advertised the church for sale in 2020. In Jan 2022, the East Lothian Courier noted that a planning application had been submitted for change of use to a house.

A number of images of the church and some of the headstones are available from Canmore.
