Continuity and Change in Scottish Death and Burial Customs, 1875–2025

This is a research document I prepared for my University Course about Culture and Heritage. I  researched “Continuity and Change in Scottish Death and Burial Customs, 1875–2025”. I used  headstones in cemeteries in Kilbirnie as examples, as well as family stories. There’s pictures in the appendices.
