Durness Old Church

Album Info:
A skull-and-crossbones within the church marks the ambiguously positioned tomb of one Donald Macmurchow, whose exploits as a highwayman included murdering eighteen people. In later life he funded the church generously, in return, it is said, for a burial here. Another notable burial is the great Gaelic poet Rob Donn. The churchyard also contains the mass grave of the crew of a ship that sank off Faraid Head with all hands in 1849.
