Eassie Old Church is a ruined medieval church located in Angus, Scotland, with origins likely extending back to the early Christian period. The site is notable for its association with a cross slab, a carved stone monument typical of early medieval Pictish or early Christian Scotland, which represents an important class of archaeological evidence from the first millennium. The church structure itself shows characteristics of medieval ecclesiastical architecture, though the site has undergone significant change over the centuries. Together, the church remains and cross slab demonstrate the continuity of Christian worship and monumental practice at this location across multiple periods of Scottish history.
