DescriptionThe churchyard surrounds the church which is a ‘A’ listed building and was built between 1729 and 1732. This octagonal building is the only church designed and built by renowned architect William Adam. The churchyard contains the Netherton Cross and Covenanting martyrs memorials. The Netherton Cross dates from the 19th or 11th century and was found the Hamilton Palace grounds and moved to the churchyard in 1926.
