Duff House Mausoleum

The mausoleum was built in 1790 for the second Earl of Fife, to accommodate the remains of his family. I have seen it hinted at that he included some people he thought ought to be related to him, without any definite evidence that they were related. I wish the estate would undertake a little careful clearing of the trees that are getting too close to the building.
