Oliver Cromwell was certainlyactive across the area of church before the battle of Preston, He was also rumoured to have ordered the beheading of two monks at the gate’s of Church Kirk. I must add that the tales that the heads over the door at the Kirk represent these two unfortunates are probably two early in there representation. I have some recent photos of the heads, but as always I can’t get the bl**dy things up.
