I like Robert Burn's monument . Specially the stairs winding up. The grave stone carvings are fantastic. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing. Too bad we don't have cemeteries like that in my town. Thank you Dan

It’s fantastic that you are learning about all the carvings on the stones. I’m looking forward to that! Really enjoyed this ancient place♥️

New subscriber here! 😊 You have a pleasant voice and soothing manner of speech, which adds to the serenity of these tours. I’m from the U.S. so have never seen graves from the 1600s before. The raised and intricate stone carvings are just amazing! Would love to see your analysis of these. Fascinating to see the little stonewalled courtyards covered in ivy behind the monument doors, the font for ‘diseased’ persons, and the grates for decomposition to discourage grave robbers. I also appreciate the historic info. plaques and the poetry references. Enchanting! 👏🏻

Beautiful graveyard. A lyric for the eyes and heart. ❤

What an interesting graveyard that was eerily beautiful omg that door sounded like a woman's scream 😱 😳 😍

Dan thanks for another great video and enjoyed seeing the Burns monument. The cemetery was really beautiful Dan thank you very much.

Thank you that was great! I visited RB birthplace in the 1970's that is a beautiful old graveyard.

fabulous! this is definitely one of the most interesting graveyards you've taken us to.. would love to see a video on reading gravestones! you're awesome Dan ❤ thanks for everything!

Anxious to hear about the way to read the stone!!👍👍👍🌞🌞

I live in a small town in Texas called Midlothian. We were named after a train engineers Scottish home. I got so excited when i heard you say East Lothian.

Nice one Dan. Nice info again and like the area. 👻🦇👍

Wow, so cool. Thanks for sharing with us 😊

I would love to know how to read those old interesting headstones with the devil and skull and crossbones. The first ones I saw were in Salem Mass graves for the victims. Really cool.

interesting video as always! there is a town near here called Allouez, pronounced like Alloway, so every time you said it perked my ears!

Lápides muito bem trabalhadas mereciam uma limpeza para ver melhor os detalhes

Peek a BOO 👻 Just waiting and I couldn't resist 😂🤣😅🤣😂

Beautiful cemetery! sad nobody is taking care of the headstones..

Dang. I wanted to see what was behind the other door in the memorial to Robbie Burns. I love the memorial with the squeaky door.

This is my favorite graveyard yet

Thanks for sharing this cemetery🪦

Looking forward to it! 🎉

If by any change I passed by that graveyard and heard that door squeak , day or night , I would completely desintegrate into some sort of post-human gelatine right where I stood . Good Lord !!! Fantastic video and location as always .

Great graveyard😊

We visited that church yard very late at night after a wedding at the Brig o' Doon. There was quite a spooky lightshow with spooky noises coming from the old kirk. Not something that us oldies would normally do but it was fun to be there at midnight in Tam O'Shanter country.

Maybe the harvest-looking stone was depicting the scripture that says He is the vine and we are the branches?

Going from what I can see, the General John Hughes died in 1822 and was 69 years old.

I think 3-in-one might be better on those hinges.

American pronunciation of lieutenant at 4.03.😇 His date was 1832.

Skeletons, Sculls and hour glasses etc. were to remind the living how few years we have, even for a relatively long life, and the hour glass especially, is a reminder of the time slipping away faster than we think. Added to that is biblical quotes and wise sayings to make you take it very seriously. You will be very unlikely to see any of those warnings on recently erected tomb stones these days. That, unfortunately, is a reflection on these modern secular times and a reflection of the sad state of the lack of preaching of the true gospel nowadays. Not so many preachers are faithful enough to warn us for our own good, to seek forgiveness of our sins and obtain everlasting life before it’s too late. It matters not, that these warnings were given to people who lived long long before any of us today were even born, for the self same circumstances are true of each and every one of us! Please dear friends, think seriously about your eternal soul and call on the name of the Lord Romans 10: 13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

What information can you get from the cryptic carvings and symbols if they could be read? Ty

So these mausoleums, have the coffins been removed or are they buried under foot???

@deadgoodwalks

As far as I know they are underfoot. Whether they originally were I'm not sure, I guess they could have been placed above ground but when the roof falls in etc... they could then be placed underground.

General John Hughes died 1833 I think.

LX is 60 and IX is 9. I hope I am right.

Hi all 3:24

13:45 Is this the Brig o' Doon over which Tam o' Shanter on his horse Maggie escaped Nannie the witch - the one wearing the cutty sark - leaving the mare's tail in her hand as she reached out to grab him? I think Burns was buried in Dumfries because he died there.
