The Ramshorn is one of Glasgow's older burial grounds and was used as a site of burial from 1719 to 1915.

The Graveyard has the graves of some of the merchants whose names live on in streets like Glassford Street as well as the grave of the noted social reformer of the 18th century, David Dale and a memorial to Sir John MacDonald who was the first Prime Minister of Canada.

This site is still a work in progress, so you might run into a few rough edges.

The Friends of Ramshorn Graveyard are excited to announce that tours of the graveyard are now available.
