No "if" about it! - The Canmore reference is for the now stolen/missing hogback that used to be in Kirknewton graveyard! - and if you're showing the picture, then the mistake is yours!

The location featured in the photographs is in Kirknewton ENGLAND - i.e. Nothumberland! NOT in Kirknewton Scotland!!

    Thanks but those aren't our photos, if that's the case then it is an error by the poster on Geograph
