Creeping through Corstorphine

One of my favourite Edinburgh neighbourhoods is Corstorphine.  It has a very different feel from the city centre, with a mixture of cute cottages, and grander homes set back from the road.  I wanted to see all the quaint parts of this village-within-the-city, so a friend and I did a walking tour, again from 24 Great Walks in Edinburgh.  Below are some of my favourite shots of the delights we found.

Corstorphine Old Parish Church

The discovery of a ball in the churchyard is a beautiful thing!

Is it just me, or is everything just a wee bit crooked in the churchyard?

Green Man tombstone!

Tombstones make the perfect picnic spots.  :)

Another exciting grave marker.

Corstorphine Doocot (Dove cot) is all that remains of the former Castle.

I think I would like a bright, sunny door like this someday.
