St Peter's Church or Peter Kirk

Description

Listed Category A structure, dating originally to at least the 13th century. The church is roofless but includes at its west end the base of a 14th century tower along with the remains of a 16th century porch. It was partially rebuilt possibly around 1739 for Presbyterian worship. It appears to have been unroofed during the 19th century prior to the erection of the new church in 1869.

Remains of Market Cross date to 14th century.
