We present the results of x-ray scattering and muon-spin relaxation ($mu^{+}$SR) measurements on the iron-pnictide compound FeCrAs. Polarized non-resonant magnetic x-ray scattering results reveal the 120$^circ$ periodicity expected from the suggested three-fold symmetric, non-collinear antiferromagnetic structure. $mu^+$SR measurements indicate a magnetically ordered phase throughout the bulk of the material below $T_mathrm{N}$=105(5) K. There are signs of fluctuating magnetism in a narrow range of temperatures above $T_mathrm{N}$ involving low-energy excitations, while at temperatures well below $T_mathrm{N}$ behaviour characteristic of freezing of dynamics is observed, likely reflecting the effect of disorder in our polycrystalline sample. Using density functional theory we propose a distinct muon stopping site in this compound and assess the degree of distortion induced by the implanted muon.
