Open day at Old St Peter's Kirk, Thurso

17 September 2023, Starts: 10:00, Ends: 16:00

Open Day at Old St Peter's Kirk, Thurso, part of Doors Open Day. No booking needed. Further details on Doors Open Day website.

There have been many additions to the church over the centuries until it was closed to worship in 1832. Although now roofless and in ruins it is still a hidden gem with a serene atmosphere of its own protecting secrets within its walls.

Please note: the graveyard has very narrow gravel paths in some areas and access to the inner church is stepped down with no handrails.  Every assistance will be given but there may be issues for those with impaired mobility to enjoy the entire venue.

Society members will be present to give tours and more information.
