| Fair Helen's Cross (Kirkconnel) | Ancient Cross | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 2nd May 2019 | 3 | 4 | 3 | Fair Helen's Cross, Kirkconnel Old Church: It was a beautiful walk from the small parking area provided at about NY 25239 74833. We let ourselves through the kissing gate and followed the footpath which ran just to the east of Kirtle Water, and a pasture field with sheep and young lambs to our right... Read More |

| Hoddom Parish Church | Sculptured Stone | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 2nd May 2019 | 2 | 2 | 4 | Sculptured Stone at Hoddom Old Parish Church: Our first stop of the day, and a strange place. A church in ruins, boarded up, although with parts of the churchyard really nicely tended – presumably because of the war graves.
Sitting on the southern side of the B725 to the south west of Ecclefe... Read More |

| Fair Helen's Tombstone | Marker Stone | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 2nd May 2019 | 3 | 4 | 3 | Fair Helen's Tombstone: This ‘monument’ is in two parts, the first of which came as a complete surprise, to our west, just off the path in a clearing, just above Kirtle Water.

| Mossknowe Tumulus | Cairn | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Saw from a distance | 2nd May 2019 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Mossknowe Cairn 1/ Belten Mound: We stopped outside the cottage to the west of the minor road at NY 27846 69513, but could not see much. Carrying on to where the road bends at NY 28117 69281, the only gate into the field from the road here is at NY 28067 69222 and hadn't been opened in such a long t... Read More |

| Mossknowe 2 | Cairn | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Saw from a distance | 2nd May 2019 | 2 | 3 | 4 | Mossknowe Cairn: the cairn nearest to the bend in the road, south east of the cottage which has Mossknowe Tumulus in its garden. Nothing special, but another site ticked off the list. | 127 | 3 |
| Mossknowe 3 | Cairn | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Saw from a distance | 2nd May 2019 | 2 | 3 | Mossknowe Cairn 3: Saw this from a distance only, as the light was fading rapidly, the rain was pelting down and we couldn’t open the gate into the first field. Couldn’t get too excited about this, although it looked the most interesting of the three cairns. | 127 | 5 |
