| Description: | OLD HOUSE Old house in Scotland decorated with symbolic crosses. Galloway, Scotland. Nice shot of an old country cottage decorated with symbolic crosses. Several close up shots of some of the crosses - most of them read 'Memento Mori' - Remember Death. Voiceover says that most of them were brought by local mason from the ruins of Dundrennan Abbey nearby - they must have been gravestones. Several shots of the ruins of the abbey - walls are still there, although ruined, but there is no roof. Cut back to the strange house. | |
