About The Trip



Extract from Main Page:
We made the trip on Monday, 23rd of February, 2003. although the air temperature never got above freezing even in the middle of the afternoon, it had been gloriously sunny every day for a week, so most of the snow and ice had cleared away.
The first place we visited was the magnificent but now sadly disused High Kirk of Campsie in Lennoxtown, where the grave of John's grandmother lies. John's family once lived in a house facing its main entrance.


It doesn't come across too well on the picture, but the driveway that leads up to the church and graveyard has a very steep gradient. The church as a commanding position above Lennoxtown. The photo was taken about halfway up the drive, which probably explains why I was too exhausted to hold the camera straight...

When researching for this I got the impression that the church's "real" name was St. Andrews, but many people have since corrected me. Perhaps somebody reading this will be able to tell me where I might have got that idea from?

This is picture "len02". If you'd like a higher quality copy (about 300k in size, suitable for up to 10x8" prints) please e-mail admin@elmour.com.
