Kirkmadrine Stones

Some of the oldest early Christian memorial stones in Britan are to be found at Kirkmadrine Church just a few  miles from 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 and, on a sunny day, the views from the churchyard are outstanding.
