Redkirk, Old Parish Church and Burial-ground NY 301 650 NY36NW 5

Nothing remains of the former parish church of Redkirk or Raynpatrick which is first mentioned in about 1170. The church, which was probably superseded in 1609 when the parishes of Redkirk and Gretna were united, was destroyed by coastal erosion before 1834. See also NY36NW 31.
