Not been on here or out exploring for almost about a month, so was nice to finally get back to it :)

Visited here and a couple of other places, including Rocky Road Cottage and St Trinian's Chapel this afternoon, they're on my website as they're quite small so didn't want to make a whole thread for them.

Marown Church

Also known as St Runius. The church dates back to approximately 1200AD, and enlarged and modified in 1754. Today parts of the original building still remain in the eastern side of the church. It was the original parish church of Marown, until a new larger church was built in 1859 to cater for the parishes growing congregation, and St Runius was gradually used less and less only for special services.
