Kirkton Farm
The farm of Kirkton of Abernyte anjoys a fine situation on the south-east slope of Kirkton Hill. Just to emphasise the ecclesiastical connection, the wood is Kirktonhill Wood, the steepest part of the hill is Kirkton Craig and the nearest cottage is Kirkton Farm Cottage. The kirk itself is about 300 yards further down the road, behind the photographer.

Gravestone (3)
This is the stone in front of the right-hand corner of the wall of the kirk in Image It has carvings of the tools of a tradesman as well as some farm animals and the usual inscription, 'Memento Mori'. Like Image] it is askew. I wonder whether the whole kirkyard is perhaps subsiding southwards?

Abernyte Parish Church
The present church was probably built in the late 16th. century on the site of a medieval church The building was greatly renovated in 1672 before being largely remodelled and extended in 1736. The interior is graced with dark wood panelling and beams. The churchyard contains many wonderful old stones and gives an indication of the trades in the parish. Well worth a visit.
