ST DROSTAN'S CHURCH, OLD ABERDOUR

3D Model

The ruined St Drostan’s Church is probably 16th century in date, built on an earlier site and incorporating earlier fabric. It was superseded in 1818 when the present parish church was built in New Aberdour. The west gable is almost intact with a shallow pointed headed window. The slightly off-centre south aisle was rebuilt in 1764, roofed and closed as a burial vault. The west end of nave is partitioned as burial enclosure with round-headed arch with blocked imposts between nave and south aisle. There are two arched recess monuments on the north wall, the eastern one illegible with two shields, the western one to James Baird of Auchmedden dated AD 1559. Aberdeenshire HER NJ86SE0002.
