(ROBERT BURNS MEMORIAL CAIRN)

A new Burns memorial cairn was built in 2023 the cairn provides a safe home for the original plaque.

The cairn pays tribute to Adam Christie, a patient at Sunnyside, who carved a stone plaque in 1930 to commemorate the spot where Burns stopped to water his horse in 1787 as well as containing a new sculpture done in the style of Adam Christie. Keep checking our site for updates.

This has been our most recent project in the creation of our Burns Trail which we expect to become a major tourist attraction in the area.
