St. Columba's Kirk, Lerwick

Image: © Ruth Sharville Taken: 1 Jul 2008

This Church of Scotland is often referred to as "the big Kirk" in Lerwick - a town of many churches (several of which I've posted to this square). At time of my visit there were extensive renovations being done to the interior, and the main entrance was blocked. This led me to take this unusual view of the East end of the exterior - a view I would not have thought of taking if the entrance had been clear.
