The kirk at Logie Buchan

Logie Buchan is a parish in Aberdeenshire, two miles south-east of Ellon. The word Logie, expressing "a low-lying spot", has been applied to this place on account of its applicability to the tract in which the church is situated. The suffix is used, as descriptive of the position of the parish in that part of the county called Buchan, to distinguish this from other places of the name of Logie.

The church, dedicated to St Andrew, was built in 1787. The Auchmacoy Dovecot is a Category A listed building.
