Lockdown gave us the the time to explore the history on our doorsteps, and where better to start than our cemeteries.
Every headstone has a story to tell, and they offer a fascinating glimpse into the past lives which helped shape our town.
Tours of the Old Kirk’s historic graveyard are now resuming.
By way of introduction, here’s our images from three local graveyards – the Old Kirk, Abbotshall and the often forgotten Nether Street.
And if you do visit, please be respectful, and take home any rubbish!
