Old photograph of Kirk O' Shotts Parish Church and Kate's Well in Salsburgh, North Lanarkshire, Scotland. Kirk O' Shott's Church also goes by the more affectionate title " The M8 Church " for its location on a hillock alongside the busy M8 motorway between Glasgow and Edinburgh. The Church was formerly a Catholic place of worship under the name Saint Catherines Chapel. St. Catherine's Well or Kate's Well is a historical natural spring well of significant interest and sits on holy ground at the foot of Kirk O' Shott's Parish Church. The well dates back to the 14th century and derives from the Churches former past when it was once a Catholic place of worship as St. Catherines Chapel which has origins from Catherine of Sienna.
