I will be heading North on my next wee adventure with Big Ted, to explore lost and forgotten parts of Sutherland and Caithness. One of the places we hope to visit is Ballachly, Dunbeath. Here there is a most isolated graveyard. One of the tombstones is inscribed: ‘This grave is never to be opened’.
