Description
An account of the resource
<p>The Vennel Churchyard, usually glimpsed through locked gates, is next to the old Parish Church (1633) and contains headstones with intriguing carvings and inscriptions. Queensferry’s Masonic Lodge is adjacent, once one of Scotland’s earliest school buildings, dating from 1671. Visitors can access the Lodge, where Masonic regalia and artefacts will be on display, the Churchyard and the recently transformed Hawthorn Bank Community Garden, open after a four-year redevelopment. Make a day of it – walking tour map of Queensferry & Dalmeny available.</p><p><strong>GLOBAL CONNECTIONS AND ACTIVITIES</strong></p><p>Guided tours of the Churchyard will highlight the stories of those who came from far off lands or travelled abroad but who all ended up in this final resting place.
