Summary edit

Description
English: Simprim Church. Remains of Simprim church comprising nave and chancel. The church was dedicated in 1247 and it, and its income, became the property of Kelso Abbey. In July 1482 the church was burnt by the order of the future king, Richard III. It was repaired but its fortunes declined although a new church steeple and bell were added in 1756. However in 1761 the parish combined with Swinton, the bell was removed to Swinton House and the church closed. Squared sandstone rubble; rubble dressings. E gable virtually intact with chamfered surround to blocked, round-arched opening centred in outer elevation; plaque centred in inner elevation. Remains of wall to N; little to S or W.
