Comment: Muirkirk Parish Church circa 1812. Low box shaped tower and sturdy rectangular design indicates this was a hardy workers Kirk. Hosted many a weary Miner from the Pits over the years. |

Comment: Standing like a soldier with broad shoulders the Muirkirk Parish Church was built in 1812 in this Ayrshire mining village. Sadly the clock faces are empty and lifeless. |

Comment: St Thomas RC Church Muirkirk, circa 1856. Situated behind the much larger Parish Kirk and interesting to note that it is built of red sandstone and not ashlar like it's neighbour. |
