Carnock Church Ruin, Fife Nov 08

Situated just outside Dunfermline is the small vilage of Carnock.

It features one complete church & one ruined church so decided to pay the ruined one a visit.

It features a small chapel complete with gravestones inside the ruined shell.

Watchmans hut

Interesting detail featuring a sundial, dating from 1683

War memorial

Some of the more unusual gravestones in the yard

Not sure what the thing in the middle is meant to be, kinda looks like a rubber chicken!

Got that sinking feeling?

That is some cool carving on those head stones. Nice find, thanks.

Fabulous gravestones. That really is an interesting place. Love that sundial too.

Some of the headstones have a Templar look about them. Have you any more of the headstone???
Good pics though. Looks a nice place. The shape of the chapel is very similar to the ruin at Temple!
Looks like another place to visit on my list!!

They're the only headstones I took pictures of.

That graveyard isn't that big, as the mining in the area grew the need for a larger church grew with it so a bigger one was built in the village & that one abandoned
