St Margaret's Church

Apart from a modest name plate saying that this is St Margaret's Church, there is no indication of what denomination it belongs to. I am indebted to Elspeth McKay-Smith who told me that it was an Episcopal Church, but has not been in regular use as a church since the 1960s. It is now owned by the estate, and is used occasionally for services such as weddings and funerals. The churchyard is still open for burials. An online search revealed that at least one funeral service was held there in 2007, and there are two graves with dates in 2008.
