About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Clachan Shannda Burial Ground is located northwest of the "new" Clachan Sands Cemetery. Heading north along B893 from Lochmaddy, North Uist toward the Harris ferry it will be a left hand turn. After turning you will pass the new cemetery on your right. Continue along this road and the old Burial Grounds will be located on your left at the edge of the sand dunes. The cemetery is enclosed with a stone wall. Many "croft stones" are found within the cemetery. ("Croft Stones" are those markers brought from one's croft to indicate a burial. However, there is no writing on any of these stones.) In the summer of 2010, I, along with other family members inventoried the existing 119 "modern" stones. (Numbers 4, 28, 43, 45, 96 and 105 were not legible.)
