A Devonian living in Fife
Situated just outside Dunfermline is the small vilage of Carnock.

It features one complete church & one ruined church so decided to pay the ruined one a visit.

It features a small chapel complete with gravestones inside the ruined shell.

Some of the headstones have a Templar look about them. Have you any more of the headstone???
Good pics though. Looks a nice place. The shape of the chapel is very similar to the ruin at Temple!
Looks like another place to visit on my list!!
 
They're the only headstones I took pictures of.

That graveyard isn't that big, as the mining in the area grew the need for a larger church grew with it so a bigger one was built in the village & that one abandoned
