The existence of a church in Menmuir is first mentioned in the late 13th century (a dedication to St Aidan) and two fragments of sculptured cross slabs were found when the walls of the graveyard were demolished in around 1844. The present church was built in the 1840s to replace one built in 1767 (which had replaced a medieval original). The church was built onto the north end of the burial aisle of the Carnegies, dated 1639.
The building is Category 'C' listed. The present owners have installed solar thermal panels.
