The National Monuments Service's description
Referring to the RC church at Grange, according to Robertson (1894, 193-4), the ‘present Catholic Church has a portion of the ancient church [KK023-036001-] built up in the gable-end to road, in which I discovered a portion of the original doorway, and the stoup’.
