== History ==
The first records of Chirnside and its church came in the early 12th century during the reign of King Edgar of Scotland (1097–1107), in a charter granting the lands and church to the monks of Durham. The 12th-century church was known as ''Ecclesia de Chirnyside'' and it was valued at 50 merks.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Heritage Sites around Chirnside )〕
The first church at Chirnside was a plain rectangular building with a thatched roof and earthen floor. The altar dominated the east end and a priest would conduct daily mass, probably from a pulpit near the altar.
The ''Ecclesia de Chirnyside'' was dedicated, like many other church establishments in the area, by David de Bernham, Bishop of St Andrews, on in 13 April 1242. In 1524 a young man named Luke Acheson, who lived in the village, was keeping watch from the tower of the church, and was killed by six English freebooters.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Chirnside Parish Church )〕
