This is Kirk Maughold churchyard on the Isle of Man where Sir Thomas Hall Caine is buried. The grave was designed by Archibald Knox. He was a Victorian novelist who fought hard to change conditions which he observed. There are fine Celtic crosses and a Celtic graveyard reminiscent of Orkney. What a beautiful and holy place in whcih to be buried! Fr Duncan was an excellent guide and Wikipedia has a good article about Caine.
