Notes:
Built in 1835, 20 feet x 17 feet x 12 feet high, vaulted with 2 shelves each side fitted with rollers; ashlar granite front, oak door, 2 keyholes with protective bar, inner iron door. In later years the mort house was used as a mortuary for drowned sailors.
There is also a smaller and more primitive vault in the kirkyard. Of uncertain date it is a vaulted chamber 8 feet x 6 feet x 5 feet high, turfed, arched and chamfered doorway approached by 5 steps. The door is now missing but the hinge-pins remain in place.
