Soutra Aisle

Dating to 1164, this disused church is all that remains of Soutra Aisle, a large medieval hospital complex commanding a windswept view over the the Valley of the Forth. The hospital was closed in 1460. With the exception of this holy fragment, the rest of the complex was taken down stone by stone and the building materials reused elsewhere over the coming centuries. It stands in the Scottish Borders Region (but only just!) UK.
