Kirkton of Logie Buchan, Aberdeenshire

Former manse, Kirkton of Logie Buchan

Uploader's Comments

It sometimes seems that the sizes of Church of Scotland manses were inversely proportional to the population of the parish they served (or was such a dwelling needed to tempt a minister and his family to a bleak and desolate outpost?). The former manse (built 1775) is extravagantly large for a kirkton settlement and dwarfs the adjacent kirk itself: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5094314 .
