    Looks like a really interesting church. Theirs a kirk (Church of Scotland) in the village that I grew up in, which is built on the site of the chapel that served the village, before the Reformation. It is claimed, that the Gothic styled window at the back of the kirk, is the only surviving part of the original chapel.

    The only thing we can compare to it that we've seen is Mission San Juan Capistrano. Now, stick that place in a fairy tale in a hidden area 500 years beforehand, and you get these ruins.
