The Howff, Dundee

The Howff - an old Scots word for meeting place - used to be the Greyfriars Monastery, but it was destroyed by Protestant reformers in the 1540s.

The site was gifted as a cemetery to the city by Mary Queen of Scots in 1564.
Today, visitors can see tombstones of many of Dundee's leading citizens, including the gravestone of James Chalmers, the inventor of the adhesive postage stamp.
