A cine film taken in either
1965
Pictured are my late Mum & Dad.
The third person seen is the Kirkyard's caretaker.Even then, it was "closed" both for burials and for visting.He had come specially to unlock the area & show us around.
Some of my maternal relatives are buried here.You can see from the inscriptions on the grave stone that they are buried 8 -.Deep.
Greyfriars Kirkyard is famous as the scene of some of the early trade & work of the murderers & grave robbers Burke and Hare
Of course,it is quite poignant,me watching this silent film..........
