When King James II created his Knights of the Thistle, the congregation of the Holyroodhouse no longer had a place of worship. Thus, in 1891, the Canongate Kirk was built. This captivating church also has an intriguing cemetery, which includes the gravesites of philosopher Dugald Stewart, artists Alexander and John Runciman, and poet Robert Dugald.   (© 10Best)
