Doing a follow up graveyard talk on 26th April to help raise funds and awareness of the Dunblane Museum building, which needs re limewashing. Be the first chance to buy the new history of the graveyard booklet too! #dunblane #cathedral #graveyard

Looking for what to get stained glass fans for Christmas? Here's the answer: a new book on the stories behind Dunblane cathedral's windows. Now available at Meldrum's, Dunblane High St. and Dunblane Museum open Saturday mornings. #cathedrals #stainedglass

Quite a variety of fungi in the graveyard this year, these are just a few at Dunblane Cathedral. #graveyard #cathedral @welovehistory

Day 31 skull: some fairly worn skulls in Dunblane Cathedral graveyard and a wee treat, the skull on the cartouche @LeightonLib very special and counts as I'm sure it's watching us! Graveyard tours next year from Society of Friends 💀 #31DaysOfGraves @welovehistory #Cathedral
Day 30, scroll work, Finlayson mural in the nave at Dunblane Cathedral. Isabella was the last person buried here before the restoration. Robert Rowand Anderson had a hand in this design. #31daysofgraves @welovehistory #cathedral
Day 29 Old. Founder of Dunblane Cathedral, Dominican friar, Bishop Clement d 1258. Are his bones here? The graveyard tour by Society of Friends of Dunblane Cathedral may shed a light 😉#31daysofgraves @welovehistory #Cathedral
Day 28, died elsewhere: William Stirling Gunner R.M.A. died on the hospital ship 'China' of pneumonia. Nationality 'Scotch' on death cert. Headstone B130 Dunblane Cathedral graveyard. #31DaysOfGraves @welovehistory #cathedral
Day 27 - inside. Keir memorial designed by Robert Rowand Anderson. Lots of Stirlings were buried in this section of the nave, both pre and post reformation. A rather fabulous piece of Scottish Baroque! Dunblane Cathedral. #31DaysOfGraves @welovehistory #cathedral
Day 26 unusual - Both these headstones are to the same person Joseph McLean d.1872 one from his family and one from his colleague a lawyer and sit at right angles to each other. Stones D109 & D118 Dunblane graveyard. #31daysofgraves @welovehistory #cathedral
Day 25 torch, as the nave was part of the graveyard for around 300yrs, this is Rev. Robert Stirling d.1817 grave and memorial with flame/torch. Dunblane Cathedral graveyard. #31DaysOfGraves @welovehistory #cathedral
