Interesting. Gillespie's portrait hangs in the church in townsquare I think in Kirkcaldy which I think is now not a church per se but was several years ago when I was in contact with the session re the painting. I've lost touch and need to speak to email someone to be sure I can still use the artwork; if you happen to visit Kirkcaldy and plan to visit the church, see if you can find any contact info; I would me much obliged!

One part of St Mary's is someone's house, the other part is looking the worse for ware. Apparently the owners want to sell it (for about 75,000 quid)! Any rich Puritan fans want to buy it and fix it up? |
