Houndwood

Sitting close to the A1 trunk road Houndwood church appears to the passer-by as a neat and well maintained place of worship. However looks are deceiving, the building has for many years been privately owned and ceased to be used for religious ceremonies quite some time ago. The church stands on the original alignment of the A1 and the burial ground, maintained to a neat standard still retains many headstones. Recent plans to convert the building to a crematorium are under discussion. Few buildings within the area have the transport connections and capacity (the building can hold around 200 people. The congregation from the church now use the village hall in the next village of Grantshouse to the north.
