Kirkmadrine Stones

History & Heritage

Sandhead

Kirkmadrine Stones are some of the oldest early Christian memorial stones in Britain.

They can be found at Kirkmadrine Church. Just a few miles from the village and beach at Sandhead on the Rhins of Galloway.

While the current church was built in the late 1800s, some of the stones date back as far as 400-600 AD.

The stones are displayed behind a glass door on the church building. O

n a sunny day, the views from the churchyard are outstanding.
