The main entrance to the church is on the south elevation where its bestiary carvings and Romanesque columns are of particular architectural merit and are widely documented. The national importance of Dalmeny Kirk is reflected by its category A listing. The churchyard is also listed and contains a variety of graves and monuments with the earliest dating from 1678.
