Tour Scotland Photographs Old Church Forfar


Tour Scotland photograph of the East and Old Parish Church in Forfar, Angus, Scotland. Originally the parish kirk, with a tall slender spire, with steeple clock overlooking the town centre. The East and Old Church is built on the site of the original place of worship that some of the monks of Restenneth Priory built hundreds of years before the one today. The adjoining graveyard has famous 'residents' such as botanist George Don, quite a few scholars and a man who blamed the witches of Forfar for poisoning him after ill words were exchanged between them. The steeple is a focal point of Forfar, visible when entering the town from any direction.
