FogoFogo literally means the foggage pit, foggage being the grass, or moss, that grows in a field after the hay has been cut. Fogo Church dates from the 17th and 18th centuries, though parts of it - especially the lower courses of its masonry - date from the 13th century or earlier. The church bell dates from 1644, and within the vestry is one of the oldest gravestones in Berwickshire, dating from the 1300s. The church’s communion cups are the oldest still in use, and date from 1662. On the outside wall of the church are stairs leading to private lofts, where the gentry once worshipped. The picturesque lych gate is now a war memorial, and in the kirkyard are the graves of 16 airmen from World War II. |
