Description: Tinwald Kirk Tinwald has a colourful history. Like many others, the rector of the Roman Catholic church suddenly became Protestant at the Scottish Reformation in 1560 and retained his charge. Another wonderful story is of 21 years old, Alexander Robeson of Kelso who was elected to serve as minister in the late 17th. century but Alexander did not wish to be minister and left. He was chased, restrained and return to the church where he later spent 65 years in his ministry until he died in 1721, aged 86.
