The graveyard nestles amongst the high-rise flats of Pollokshaws almost forgotten. As I wandered around taking my photographs the odd face would appear at a window or a head would turn for a moment on Riverbank Street, but no-one was curious enough to come over and ask "Why?" . . . something I sometimes wonder about myself.
