The Photographic and Stone Condition Survey is to record the condition, of the surviving 3,500 monuments in the Glasgow Necropolis before they are lost to weathering, vandalism or theft.

Following sections are still to be surveyed in this suggested order:

Eta 153

Theta 177

Petra 422

Quartus 474

Quintus 126

Epsilon circa 600 still to be surveyed

Zeta 201

Some surveys of the larger mausolea were done by Historic Environment Scotland and Conservation Architecture Students from the University of Strathclyde.

The Intention is that on completion the data will be available on a searchable website to aid research and help families to find their family memorials – all of this is currently done manually by our Genealogist Morag Fyfe.
