Parish notes
Aka Drumgreioch the church was granted by Walter de Carnato to Kelso Abbey c.1180 and confirmed to the uses of the abbey by Bp. Walter of Glasgow (Kelso Lib. nos. 13, 279, 344). A vicarage was erected thereafter, the parsonage teinds continuing with the abbey at the Reformation, although the revenues appear to have been mainly devoted to the use of the cell of Lesmahagow (ibid. p. 471; Assumptions 236, 241, 248; RSS v no. 2840). Cowan 1967, 52. Now part of Kirkpatrick Juxta KPJ.
