Old travel Blog photograph of Greyfriars Church on the corner of St Cuthbert Street and Castle Bank in Kirkcudbright in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. Originally a late 15th century Franciscan convent church, which incorporates the burial aisle of the Maclellan family, which is believed to have formed part of the medieval church. Greyfriars was taken over as a parish church in 1571 and rebuilt in 1730, only to be demolished later. It was converted back into a church in 1919, having served as a school since its demolition in 1838.
