St Nicholas, Aberdeen
A grand city centre church with a central tower, for centuries the 'Main Kirk' of Aberdeen. The structure is mostly of the 15th Century but was partly rebuilt in the 18th Century. The churchyard was the main burial ground for the city worthies of the 17th and 18th Centuries. The church contains the Piper Alpha memorial to the 165 local men killed in an offshore explosion in 1988.
Shamefully, the Church of Scotland walked away from the church in 2022, citing it as 'surplus to requirements'. It has remained closed and locked ever since.

The year 1663 scratched into one of the pews at Matterdale Church in the Lake District. The church dates from at least 1573. There are various dates transcribed into the woodwork of the church at each milestone of its building and at important events in the buildings history.
There is a roof beam with the date 1573 in Roman Numerals etched into it as the date the first part of the church was complete, also a brick within the extension walls of the church bearing the date 1686 along with the date seen here on this pew.
