Description
Gravemarker in churchyard at Kinkell. The ruins of the medieval Kinkell Church can be found close to the east bank of the River Don, some two miles south of the centre of Inverurie. Finding the church can be something of a challenge. Tourist direction signs correctly steer you onto minor roads south of the B993 at a sharp bend not far past the entrance to Keith Hall. But there is nothing to tell you you should also carry straight on the next time the road you are on takes a sharp left, half a mile further on. You should do so anyway. The church itself lies close to the access to a large farm, and behind a row of cottages, so careful parking is recommended.
