St Margaret's Parish Church can be traced back to the 12th century, when a Norman church was begun in 1165. In 1435, patronage was transferred to the Logan family who held the Barony of Restalrig until 1609. In 1487, it was created a Collegiate Church by King James III.

Adjoining the church, is the hexagonal 15th century building of St Triduana's Chapel. In 1515 it held an altar dedicated to St Triduana, a Pictish saint. The lower chapel continued to be used as a burial vault for the lairds of Restalrig.
