There is a project on another site to gather together photographs of places of worship throughout the country.

Submitted images are not subject to copyright and can be instantly downloaded to your computer.

Berwickshire images are a bit thin on the ground at the moment and those displayed are just exterior images though for some places additional exterior and interior pictures are also available and some brief text about the building (for an example see Ladykirk)

Please feel free to have a look and copy any images you may want,

http://www.familytreeforum.com/wiki/index.php/Places_of_Worship:Berwickshire




If you have taken any photographs of Berwickshire places of worship that you would like to contribute then please contact me, please note images from commercial sources or copyrighted images cannot be used.



Update added 01/08/08

The listings within the thread are now being changed slightly, previously they were listed by parish which can make finding a particular image tricky if you don't know the name of the parish needed.

All listings will now be recorded as the name of the town/village and the images will be added accordingly. It is hoped that this will make it easier to locate an image you would like but during the transition please be aware that some images may be indexed by parish and/or town.

Please feel free to leave any comments regarding this project, at the moment it is a bit of a one man job and your feedback is appreciated

I took some photos of St Abbs in 2006 and the one of the school also has the church behind. The church has been sold and is no longer a place of worship but if it would be of interest I can send it to you.

Many thanks Rae

I did reply to your e-mail but wanted to add my thanks on here as well.

The info re the church being sold is quite useful too, anything i can add to the general info with the images is always handy.

Just thought i would add a sample image taken from the thread, if anyone has a particular venue they require then please ask, i can't promise an immediate result but will try to venture out for further images soon.

Just to add that the collection of images is steadily growing and many of the images now have a hyperlink added to their name, this leads to a "talk page" where some historical information about the building has been added.

Additional exterior images of most of the locations have also been taken and where possible interior pictures too, these are held in my own collection and high res (approximately 3000 x 2000 pixel) copies are available to anyone who would like them via e-mail.

Any place of worship that does have additional pictures available will be noted either with the image or within the talk page.

A growing number of Roxburghshire and Selkirkshire pictures are also available and there are a number of Berwick area pictures on the Northumberland section of the FTF wiki too.

An example of one interior picture for Whitsome church;
