The first church in Saline was located on the outskirts of the village to the north, near Old Saline Churchyard. It has been suggested that the most likely location for the church was to the east of the walled churchyard, on land now occupied by part of the garden of Kirkland House. A church is known to have existed on this site since at least the early thirteenth century, but it's possible that there may have been one present here as early as the seventh or eighth centuries. This church was demolished around 1810, when the congregation moved to the new Parish Church. (Amanda Gow, July 2007)
