Original Kirk Conchan Church

This is the original church where St Peter’s Church in Onchan now stands.

In fact this little church was better known as Kirk Conchan and the origins of the old church which stood some 50 yards to the north of the present St. Peter’s church date back to the 12th Century.

This picture is depicted in a stained glass window in the present St. Peter’s Church in Onchan.

    That is a lovely stained glass window. Are there any remains of the church still to be seen?

    I’m still getting to grips with trying to take pictures of stained glass using Michael’s camera, with very mixed results.
