Originally Monymusk Priory, today's structure has been altered several times, including post-Reformation (around 1690), and in 1822, 1851 and 1921, when Alexander Marshall Mackenzie performed a partial restoration. The clock face dates to 1865, and its Mowat bell 1748. There are monuments to Forbes-Leslie of Abersnithick and Sir Archibald Grant and his relatives.
