Old Nigg Church, Nigg, Easter Ross, Sep 2015
Well I was delighted to discover this well maintained church building. Most of the gravestones are very old some just the initials of the deceased, one dated 1775, others you could not read at all. in the 1830's cholera swept through the parish of Nigg and many lost their lives, they did not have the advances in medicine we have. The church itself is thought to date from 1626 and I like the longhouse look to it. To my absolute delight it was open see next picture.
