St Ola (formerly)
site of former church
By 1726 the fabric of the church was ruinous. Latterly it was used as a dwelling house and in 1855 Henry Dryden described what was left of the church itself, which included the S doorway and aumbry, and remains of a stoup or piscina. The pre-Reformation, on-site doorway seems to have been moved to its present location by John Reid, who bought the property. By 1896, the building was being used as a carpenter’s shop and warehouse.
