Within this burial ground are the remains of St.Peter's Kirk , one of several Orcadian churches assigned to him that were built on broch sites ( Mary may do similar duty , one broch is at the village of St.Mary's and the remains of a St.Mary's are hard by the Biggings Broch ) . wideford Posted by wideford
