Abercorn Church Campanile Sticker

The bell tower, or belfry on Abercorn Church near South Queensferry, Scotland. A free standing bell tower may be referred to by its Italian name, campanile. Note that in this case, there is only one bell and it is rung from outside the church. Abercorn Parish Church is a remarkable place. But even though a small part of it can be dated back to the 1100s, what you can see today is only part of the story. There are clues to an even longer history in the collection of stones on view in the Abercorn Museum, just inside the churchyard gates. These include Viking hog-back burial stones; a cross stone; and a carved cross-shaft dating back to the 600s. Three bracketed JPGs converted to HDR in Photomatix Pro. BEST VIEWED LARGER
