On one of our walks along the river Ayr in the town we came across this church tucked behind the high street - we are ashamed to admit it but we didn't even know it was there...and had been since 1654!!!
This is the church where Robert Burns probably gained his first experience of the 'Kirk' as his father was a church member. This connection offers another excuse for our lack of knowledge of this particular church as it tends to play second fiddle to the 'Auld Kirk' in nearby Alloway made famous by Burns' poems.
