What is recorded here
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Balmerino Parish Church as Church (19th Century) (1811). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Balmerino Parish Church, established in the 19th century, is associated with the veneration of Saint Fillan, a 7th-century Scottish saint linked to several holy wells and healing traditions in the region. Local folklore suggests that Saint Fillan was a hermit and healer who performed miracles, and his connection to the area may predate the church's construction.
