Fenwick parish church
East Ayrshire

Built at an angle in the grounds to arrange the church east to west. Most Christian churches tend to bury people with their feet to the west.

The guard posts were so the relatives could protect the deceased from being dug up and sold for a decent interval after interment.

A tighter in view.

Hanging to the left of the door is a brank or scold's bridle. A steel head-band to keep gossip's quiet.

From ground level looking north.
