- Period:
- 19th Century
- Description:
This page of the sketchbook shows the tomb of Susanna Muir (1653 - 1710), wife of John Sharpe of Hoddom.
These sketches of various buildings in and around Dumfries were mainly compiled through McCormick's own study of the area and by speaking to those who remembered the buildings, as the majority of them were no longer in existence or in a ruinous state by McCormick's time. The drawings are all in pencil with extensive written notes.
