Gress


Gress Cemetery lies 9 miles north of Stornoway along the B895 road to North Tolsta, just south of the village of Gress. The graveyard is located about a quarter of a mile north of the bridge, which is passed upon leaving the larger village of Back. There is space for carparking, both in the parallel road at the cemetery itself and across the road by the picnic area.

The cemetery is draped across undulating hillocks, and there is a difference in altitudes between various parts of this fairly extensive graveyard. It looks out over the Gress River and Broad Bay.
