Canisbay

Canisbay -
A small scattered community with a nineteenth century church used occasionally by the Royal Family as it is not far from the Castle of Mey which was owned by the Queen Mother and is now open to the public.

Inside the church which is open to the public is a memorial to Jan de Groot who started a ferry service to Orkney in 1496.  The church also has a graveyard surrounding it and a detailed list of who is buried there is available for consultation in the entrance.
