Hello Teya,
The weather was lovely today so I made a trip to Cambusnethan churchyard and cemetery.

The first picture is the stone at Kerr plot in the cemetery, section C 476.

Next is the Robert Douglas and Elizabeth Brounlee in the churchyard, I took a few pictures, in order to give you an idea of where the stone is situated. It is in the top left corner, at the junction of Kirk Road and Greenhead Road.

The stone is in a very fragile condition, the ivy is very intrusive and in another couple of years the lower part of the inscription will have gone.

You can see the blue direction sign on Kirk Road in this one.

This is the Robert Douglas stone, erected by his son James. it is nowhere near the Douglas & Brounlee stone.

This is a view of the churchyard with the Douglas father & son stone in front. The Douglas & Brounlee stone is up round the left corner of the ruined church.
