Holmhead Hill

Gravestones on north side of church at Corsock The small church at Corsock lies outside the village, south-east of it, and alongside the A712. The green building beside it is a church hall of lower architectural merit but doubtless of value to the local community.

Corsock & Kirkpatrick Durham graveyard There seems to be a local custom of recording the place of death on the old headstones. This one marks the burial place of the Graham family, all of whom died at Sunny Brae. The stone records the sad story of a 6-month-old child’s death in 1892, with her parents reaching their eighties in 1932 and 1946. No other children are recorded on the stone.
