  1. Some buildings seem to give off feelings. For us, Cruggleton Church, near Whithorn in Dumfries & Galloway, is one of the most forbidding and unsettling places we've visited. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/whi

  3. #Jesus take the wheel : the various sects of #Presbytarians ( even the #Kirk ) had a declining congregation in #Whithorn #Wigtownshire in #DumfriesAndGalloway #Scotland ), so the #church was closed in 1947 and converted into a repair and petrol #garage

    This has since expanded to a white building on the right, the former church now appears to be used for #MOT testing bays and extra vehicle ramps.

    As #Scotland was still quite #religious then, the faithful must have still had nearby churches (there seems to be another 0,5 km away) - although this also shows just how long ago #cars also started to become objects of worship across Britain!

  9. St Ninian's Cave, on the shore near Whithorn in Galloway. The cave is said to have been used as a place of personal retreat and prayer by St Ninian in the 390s, and it has been an objective of pilgrims since not long afterwards. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/whi

  19. A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND

    We take a boat west from St Ninian's Cave across the mouth of Luce Bay to the Mull of Galloway, the craggy punctuation point that brings the Rhins of Galloway to an abrupt end; and Scotland's most southerly point. The image shows the Mull of Galloway lighthouse. More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/dru

  21. A VIRTUAL TOUR OF SCOTLAND

    Four miles west by road and on foot or a little further round the coast by boat is St Ninian's Cave. This was used by St Ninian as a place of retreat and prayer in the 390s and there are carvings left by pilgrims as far back as the 8th century as well as more recently.

  23. For my ever-increasingly loose interpretation of #StandingStoneSunday, another carved stone from the #Whithorn collection. This is WHP.EC.19 scanned in 2004. #3d #laserscan #earlymediaeval #archaeology
