(NO 0158 0192) Fossoway Church (NR) (remains of)

OS 1:10,000 map, (1982)

The church at Fossoway, like that at Tulliebole (NO00SE 8) was taken down in 1729, and the manse and glebe were sold. A new church, replacing the two, was then built at Tulliebole.

OSA 1796.

The outline of this church is still evident on the ground by the collapsed rubble remains of its walls, except for the E half of the N wall, which has been entirely removed. It measured 17.0m E-W by 5.5m transversely. A headstone dated 1694 is among several in the graveyard.

Revised at 1:2500.

Visited by OS (W D J) 20 December 1967.
