Gask Parish Churchyard - Perth & Kinross, Scotland - Churchyard Cemeteries on Waymarking.com

Gask Parish Church was built by Richard Crichton in 1800, replacing an earlier building that lay a mile to the south. The white-harled church is situated at Findo Gask in the Perthshire countryside some five miles west of Perth.

The rectangular shaped churchyard lies on the western side of the public road with all of the gravestones being well spaced apart, the oldest stone dating from 1833. The cemetery is still in use with the newer stones being on the narrower northern side of the church. The featured stone lies to the south and reads as follows:
