Dallas Parish Church is located in an open area of ground a short distance south-west of the small, linear village of Dallas. The manse and glebe land surrounds the church and there is a small graveyard to the south. The church was built in the late 18th century and has been altered and extended in the centuries since. The graveyard features a fine former watch house and a tall 16th century cross.An older church stood on the site of the current church (or possibly slightly to the east, in the graveyard), and was dedicated to St Michael. Its foundation is not clear, although it is mentioned in 1226. It was repaired in 1580 but was ruinous by 1627.
It is located at NJ1217551866 (Lat/Lon 57.548345, -3.469066). You can see this on maps provided by:
