Graveyard memorial. c1895. Granite. Dwarf-walled tomb enclosure with Celtic cross, approximately 3 metres tall, carved in high relief. The front of the shaft has a loosely repeating motif of realistically-carved serpents entwined around groups of balls arranged as crosses, some of the serpents with bones in their mouths. The left and right sides of the shaft have interlace patterns. The cross-head has interlace, decorated balls, serpents and pairs of pumas or lions. Inscription at foot of shaft to Sir Henry Burnet, Kt, 1827-95, wife Sophia, 1833-95, daughter and son. An unusual interpretation of the Celtic Cross tradition.
