Recording Your Heritage Online

Kirkyard includes War Memorial, 1921, a bronze infantryman by William Macmillan atop a granite plinth; David Morris of Estate Office; and singular monument to Viscount Cowdray (d.1927), William Kelly, a superlative version of a Greek 'temenos' in rural Aberdeenshire: a vast granite sarcophagus with pediment and volutes guarded by lions atop obelisks.
