The Wheel Kirk was sited beside the Wheel Causeway in Liddesdale. Although the church and village have long disappeared, in 1914 excavations were carried out on the site of the church, when various carved stones and the foundations of the church were unearthed. The excavations showed a two-celled church with a rectangular nave and narrower, rectangular chancel. It is uncertain when the church was abandoned, but it appears to have occurred after the Reformation. In 1600 the 'Quheill' Church in Liddesdale is mentioned as 'waist' and valued at £10. On 9 December 1604, the Wheel Kirk was united to Castleton. The church was still marked on Blaue's map in 1648, but by the mid-19thc nothing survived above ground.

The village at 'Le Whele' is mentioned in 1296. At some point, the church belonged to Jedburgh Abbey. Unfortunately, the Chartulary for Jedburgh Abbey no longer exists, so it is unclear when the church was given to the abbey. It's first known mention comes in 1347 when the Hospital or free chapel was granted to William de Emeldon. References to the village of 'Le Whele' and 'Wyel' can be found in 1296 and in 1307-8 it is mentioned as 'Quele in Lydelsdale'.
