AKA Our Lady's Chapel
AKA Kirkburn Churchyard

Old Parish Church of Kailzie, Kirkburn. The church of Hopekailzie, dedicated to St Mary the Virgin, seems originally to have been a chapel dependent upon Innerleithen. Soon after the middle of the 12th century it passed into the possession of the abbey of Kelso, which retained it until the 16th century. The parish was a small one and, although a new church was evidently erected in 1614, the parish was suppressed in 1674, the greater part of it being annexed to that of Traquair.

The church stood close to the Kirk Burn, and the site is now occupied by an enclosure which is orientated roughly E and W and measures 69' 6" by 23' 2" over walls having a thickness of 2' 10". This enclosure appears to have been formed for purposes of burial in 1724, but its dimensions and general appearance alike suggest that it incorporates some portions of the church of 1614, which was no doubt abandoned at the suppression of the parish in 1674. The N doorway of the enclosure has a quirked edge- roll and its lintel bears an incised inscription. The lower part of the inscription divides the date 1724. The lintel of the S doorway bears a reversed monogram now so worn as to be illegible. The interior of the enclosure is divided into separate burial-places by partition walls of varying dates, and in the middle of the 19th century the W end of the building, which was then roofed, was reserved for the interment of the Williamsons of Cardrona.

Outside the enclosure there is a graveyard, but it appears to contain no stones of a date earlier than 1707.
