Abandoned cemetery in the woods across a psychiatric hospital.
Deceased patients were buried here from 1921 to 1981. 1750 crosses in total exclusively men. Since 1981 the government decided to let the cemetery rest with nature...
We visited the cemetery at Kilmorack. Kilmorack is right next to Drumindorsair. There were a lot of grave stones with the name Cameron (my mother's family).

Since its creation in 1787 as Łyczakowski Cemetery, it has been the main necropolis of the city's intelligentsia, middle and upper classes. Initially the cemetery was located on several hills in the borough of Lychakiv, following the imperial Austro-Hungarian edict ordering that all cemeteries be moved outside of the city limits. The original project was prepared by Karol Bauer, the head of the Lviv University botanical garden.
In mid-1850s the cemetery was expanded significantly by Tytus Tchórzewski, who created the present network of alleys and round-abouts. It then became the main city cemetery, and soon most other cemeteries were closed. The two largest that remained were the Yanivskiy Cemetery (Polish: cmentarz Janowski), with many working class graves and the adjacent New Jewish Cemetery. Lychakivskiy Cemetery was used by all Christian sects in the city: in addition to Roman Catholics, it also included Eastern Rite Catholics, Protestants and Orthodox. After World War II the city was annexed by the Soviet Union to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic and the majority of the surviving pre-war inhabitants of the city were expelled to the former German areas awarded to Poland after the Yalta Conference. This started a period of devastation of historical monuments located at the cemetery. Up to 1971 many of the sculptures were destroyed. However, in 1975 the cemetery was declared a historical monument and the degradation ended. Since the late 1980s, the cemetery has seen constant rebuilding and refurbishment and continues to be one of the principal tourist attractions of Lwów.

On the way back from Lisarroll Donkey Sanctuary & having passed the sign for Knawhill Cemetery probably 30 times in recent years I finally had time to spare & headed up the single track lane to find the cemetery.
This was taken a while back but could be a reality again today. Weather today includes the chance of sleet, rain, snow, wind and possible thunder! You gotta love mid-west weather. After this round of crappy weather, a warming trend. Finally some spring weather?
These benches at the Woodland cemetery in Enskede are quite popular. People always move them around after the sun. The birds also seems to enjoy them.
