Behind the walls is a terraced slope awaiting burials. Before the walls is a path of the Mall Walk Project heading to The Salmon Pool on the River Thurso. So close to the centre of Thurso yet a world apart. Less than 30 minutes walk from Thurso Train Station, yet unseen by most Geographers who focus on the "most northerly station" in the UK.
