Four mortsafes, Cluny Old Churchyard.

Cluny, Old Churchyard. In front of the Fraser mausoleum stand four mortsafes, consisting of iron cages which would have enclosed the coffin in the grave, topped by massive slabs of granite which would have been extremely diffIcult to shift clandestinely. Such weighty mortsafes required block and tackle to manoeuvre them into the grave. These are of a uniform pattern, comprising a coffin-shaped granite slab, 2.15m in length by 0.74m in width and 0.15m in thickness, fastened to a wrought-iron, riveted cage, 0.28m in height.
