Tour Scotland photograph of the church and cemetery in Madderty, Perthshire, Scotland. The current simple stone building stands on a knoll among the fields and was built from the stones of Inchaffrey Abbey about half a mile away. It was known as the Abbey Church. The nearby High Church and the Abbey Church functioned as separate congregations until 1935 when they came together with one Minister. The High Church finally closed in 1959 and was demolished in 1964. The Baptismal Font dating from 1903 was placed in the Abbey Church where it remains. Being the only Church in the area it is now known as Madderty Parish Church.
