Please don't drive your juggernaut down here!
As it says on this notice at Woll: "Sat Nav incorrect. Unsuitable for motor vehicles." But to be totally idiot-proof, it would have to be accompanied by translations into Romanian, Polish and another dozen European languages.

A carving at Ashkirk Parish Churchyard
This is part of a collapsed gravestone. It seems to have the head of a sheep but it is most likely to be a dog. The stone which is lying flat on the ground is inscribed as follows:
ERECTED
BY A FEW FRIENDS
IN MEMORY OF
ROBERT BOLD
SUNDERLANDHALL
WHO DIED 24TH MAY 1880
AGED 73 YEARS

He was only 363 when he died
The inscription on this Crawford gravestone in Ashkirk Parish Churchyard is interesting and amusing because the 18th century mason has carved the age of Robert Crawford as 363 when he died. The inscription reads:
HERE LYES
JOHN CRAWFORD
LATE TENNENT IN
DRAYDIAN WHO
DIED MAY 26 1744
AGID 78
Also Robert Crawford Son
late tenant in Branksholme
Town who died Sept 7 1767
Aged 363 years
