While out on a walk with my dogs last year...we happend to see this place in the distance....

Wondering what it was, i decided to tryand reach it...

Lots of knee deep mud and cows later...i finally made it!

I cannott believe that such a place of historical importance has been left to vandals to destory!!

What is wrong with our country!

This should be a protected site...however, a good few more years...this place will be no more!

More than sad isn't it  :-\ Lodger's description at the very beginning of this thread...

To reach this burial ground is not easy!  It is at the very end of Kirkhill Road in Netherton and can only be accessed on foot, down a steep hill. I had to climb over a waist-high gate, so be warned.

Could someone please verify this youtube is legit and not some sort of clickable scam?  As a PC user, I am wary!    :D

Hello

Would it be possible to get a copy of the REID & TORRANCE headstone.  Apparently, as a new member to the list I cannot do this through PM ...just yet.

Thanks

This isn't an easy one as I don't have a record of the inscription, sorry. I've changed the picture into sepia as it makes it a little easier to decipher. It looks as though the stone was erected by William Reid to the memory of his parents, John Reid and Helen Torrance. Also to their daughter Helen who died at Edinburgh 5th April 18(*)4 aged 5(3) years.
That's the best I can do.

Hello again Lodger

Thanks once again.  This one also turns out not to be connected.  But I have since found your explanation of your indexing system, ie MALE & FEMALE.   And on this occasion I had it in reverse.

Regards
