Situated in St Michael's Kirkyard,is the impressive Grecian Mausoleum in which Burns, his widow Jean and five of there family lie. Burns was originally buried in a modest grave in a corner just to the left of the Mausoleum and it was not until 1815(20 years after his death.) that his remains were moved to this more fitting location. He shares the kirkyard with many of his friends, colleagues and contacts.
