Old Kilmadock Cemetery, Kilmadock, Stirlingshire (Perthshire), Scotland
Today was the turn of Old Kilmadock cemetery. This Kirkyard is considered to be one of the most important and historic kirkyards in central Scotland. The graveyard may date back to the 9th century or even earlier. The church here ceased use in 1756 and much of its stone was transported to build the new church in Doune itself but it remains a beautiful location, where the Annet Burn meets the river Teith and very near Deanston. It houses graves of the Doigs, Stewarts and other families of note. If you are visiting I would advise parking just off the A84 at the entrance to the Moray estate and following the footpath from there. It’s 10 minutes. The other footpaths are muddier.
