Old Photograph St Thomas Roman Catholic Church Keith Scotland


Old travel photograph of St Thomas Roman Catholic Church in Keith, a small town in Moray, Scotland. St Thomas Roman Catholic Church is located on a prominent site in the large new town area of Keith, a grid like pattern of streets laid out in the 18th and 19th century, south of Old Keith. The church is aligned east-west and faces a large open square to the east, meaning that it can be seen from quite some distance from this area of the town. The church is a large building but occupies a fairly small plot of land, meaning there are little garden grounds with the church and there is no graveyard. The church was built in the early 1830s and designed by Father Walter Lovi, who is also said to have designed churches in Wick, Braemar and Glenlivet.
