What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Dura Kirk as Church (18th Century), Nonconformist Meeting House (19th Century). 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.
Dura Kirk is associated with St Duthac (or St Dutheus), a 6th-century Pictish saint venerated in northern Scotland. The site may have originally been a small chapel or place of pilgrimage linked to local traditions of healing and devotion, though specific folklore or recorded cures connected to it are scarce.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
