This remarkable burial ground of the Taits of Harviestoun stands on its own in a field and is encircled by a high stone wall. The 5 monuments and wall plaque commemorate several generations, beginning with John Tait (1727-1800), a wealthy Edinburgh lawyer, who bought the Harviestoun estate in 1780. Their home, Harviestoun Castle, was demolished in 1970.
