Old photograph of the church and graveyard in Greenlaw, located in the foothills of the Lammermuir Hills on Blackadder Water at the junction of the A697 and the A6105 in the Scottish Borders of Scotland. There has been a church on the site since before 1147. The present church was built 1675 and lengthened 1712. The east and west lofts were erected 1721 and the north loft 1784. A prison, resembling a church tower, was added by 1712 and was in use until 1824. The tower houses the town clock and church bell, provided by Thomas Broomfield c1696 and recast 1726.
