View Full Version : Burial Grounds
Whereabouts in Latheron is Ballachly cemetery and roughly what is the size of it, also are the inscriptions legible on many of the headstones. I assume that burials have not taken place for many years.

The proper spelling is Ballachly, its is a wee graveyard in a field, the graveyard itself is surrounded by a wall, to get to it, you turn off at Loch Stemster and follow and a dirt track roughly for about 3 miles, you will come to Ballachly farm, and on the left you will see it.
The above is taken from a thread elsewhere on this site; don't know anything about it myself......

Here's what the cemetery looks like from the road.
Hmmm, file too large to upload, oh well I tried.
Anyway, I have kin buried at Ballachly, and list of inscriptions is available. It's a very small cemetery.
