Earl's Palace, Congregational Church & Manse
Image: © Kirsty Smith Taken: 6 Aug 2003
Showing the top of the Earl's Palace in Kirkwall, looking up Palace Road towards the airport, with the end of the Congregational Church and the rooves of the manse and other houses. The Earl in question was a bad lot - apparently got his kicks torturing and taxing the locals. My mother said this building exuded evil and refused to go into it, so ca' canny if you might be the same.
