St Olaf's Old Cemetery
Also known as Cullivoe Cemetery
Yell, Shetland Islands, Scotland
Cullivoe Cemetery beside Kirk Loch. All that remains of St Olaf's Church.
The 14th century church of St Olaf, which served the parish of North Yell until 1750, since when the building has become dilapidated, and the outside covered with sand. Except for the north wall of the chancel, it is now fragmentary. Once abandoned, the church became solely a burial place, and the accumulation of sand outside has made necessary a new access at the SE corner of the nave.
