Disgusting vandals have defaced an historic 17th century church in the centre of Ayr

The Auld Kirk of Ayr, located just off the High Street on Blackfriars Walk, was targeted on Thursday night during a vandalism spree as office bearers were met with shameful graffiti on Friday morning.

Vandals defaced historic stonework with red coloured paint, including an informative commemorative plaque paying tribute to Oliver Cromwell, who used compensation money to build the now Auld Kirk. It was built between 1654 and 1656, after the area which included the medieval Kirk of St John- St John’s Tower in Citadel Place being the only remaining part- was taken over by Cromwell’s Commonwealth forces.
