The art of tombstones and the stories they tell - so underappreciated and deserving of much more attention!
Even in small communities the different tombstone styles are an immediate signal of the various people who have lived there and it helps their legacy to live on.
I agree. I also like the ones with their addresses on them, especially if the house is still there. Thank you so much for watching.
I appreciate how you pan slowly. And you are factual, no silly talk of seeing or hearing , "spirits" or fairies.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. It's a fascinating place.
Another really interesting video.
Thank you so much! If you're in the area, it's well worth a visit x
@@scotlandshistory I'm sure that I will pop in for a visit, at some point.
@@AScottishOdyssey you'll not be disappointed x
@@scotlandshistory Good to know.
For some reason or another, vaults in graveyards creep me out more than regular gravestones
I can understand that. Thank you so much for watching x
Do you have any info on the well which I believe was located in the church/graveyard grounds?
That's the St Servanus Well and was once considered a holy well. It's now covered in concrete but stood on the west side of the lower part of the cemetery near the gate. A grave was found near it too. Thank you so much for watching!
@@scotlandshistory I remember looking for it many years ago and finding the concreted over section but not being sure if I’d actually found the well! You’ve inspired me to go back for another look next time I’m over!
@@gartmorn glad to have helped.
Another one added to my bucketlist👍☠️
@@MegaGOOBER67 it's a great place for a wander round. Thank you so much for watching.
