Summary
| Description |
English: Statue of Old Mortality and his pony. The Sinclair Memorial, in the grounds of The Observatory, Rotchell Road, Maxwelltown, on the western-side of the River Nith, Kirkcudbrightshire.
Old Mortality was the nickname of Robert Paterson (1715-1801), a stonemason who took it upon himself to travel around lowland Scotland carving inscriptions for the unmarked graves of Covenanters, martyred in the 17th century. He is the subject of a novel by Sir Walter Scott. The sculptures are by John Currie (or Corrie). |
