The original Erskine Kirk was founded in the 18th century amid local religious upheaval.The 1740 church was replaced in 1825 - 6 with a new church which was almost totally destroyed by fire earlier this century. The surviving facade has been incorporated into a modern youth hostel. The tomb of the church's founder ( the Reverend Ebenezer Erskine ) lies in front of the church and is overlooked by an elaborate classical monument. | |||
