A plain country Kirk with a curious old belfry
Backblip: Cycling out last Sunday afternoon I came across this typical country kirk and was intrigued by the belfry. The kirkyard has views of distant hills. The place is styled 'Kirkton of Rayne'. I didn't know to look for the burial slab of one minister which is inscribed:
'Whereas I stood in pulpit round,
And now lie alow the ground;
When as you cors my corps so cold,
Remember the word that I you told'.
