Dryburgh Abbey and Field Marshal Earl Douglas Haig
I have just returned from a lovely visit to Dryburgh Abbey near Melrose in The Scottish Borders. Here you will find two very famous graves: Sir Walter Scott, the great Scottish Writer of the 1800s from Abbotsford, and Field Marshal Earl Douglas Haig of Bemersyde. They are buried close together lying peacefully in this beautiful place beside The River Tweed.

Why not visit The Marble Sculpture ‘FRANCE 1914’ by Simon Burns-Cox on display in Glasgow from the year 2016-2019? The Marble Sculpture ‘FRANCE 1914’ created by Simon Burns-Cox was designed to commemorate the ending of The First World War and was made in aid of Poppyscotland. The Sculpture is made from Black and Gold Portoro Marble and has been carved and highly polished by hand and represents the last remaining tree on the battlefront and a symbol of hope.
