  1. An Old Church

    Share Share Post
    There are the ruins of an old `Church in the village of Glenvela where I live. There are ruins to be seen there ever yet.
    There is an old road going from both sides of it and can be traced for about a half a mile or more. The ruins are only about a (mile ) foot high.
    There are no old people in the district who remember the chapel been there but their grand fathers remember to see it there . On that account it must be about one hundred and fifty years old.
