Carnock Church Ruin ? South East Corner

Image: © Nigel J C Turnbull Taken: 7 Jun 2008

Although this church has been a Ruin for a long time, the pointing of the stonework is in very good condition. I wonder if it is being maintained as a ‘Ruin’. An excerpt from an 1861 Parochial Directory, viewable here http://www.fifefhs.org/Records/Directory/carnock.htm . . . “The old Parish Church at Carnock was repaired in 1602, but is now in ruins, being roofless and overgrown with ivy. It was a small building, with only 240 sittings.”
