Reviews

An incredibly interesting little burial ground. We have heard it called the Pirates Graveyard, which seems a bit of a strange thing as there are several high ranking army officers laid to rest here. There is an underground vault which you can go inside, it is eerily dark yet somewhat peaceful and still inside. Across the road is a cool little tunnel that looks to lead to a private estate, gates were locked but it made for a nice photo.

the family vaunt Tread carefully and watch where you are going near the vault. This is a beautiful but strangely dark space. William Urquhart sold the estate to Lord Elibank, who sold it on. In 1768 , a London lawyer by the name of George Ross bought it. On his death, his half-nephew Alexander Gray Ross inherited Cromarty, along with considerable debts. In 1804, the estate was sequestered. Family members are buried here. Above ground the many elaborate table stones bear witness to the wealth of Cromarty and its inhabitants.

A quiet historical spot with fleeting views of the firth and very interesting gravestones.
