OS Map Ref NX 976 757
Number of CWGC burials - but note that this cemetery is no longer maintained so this is not their official place of commemoration, there is nothing to say that the 3 men are buried there.
See http://warmemscot.s4.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=7402&mforum=warmemscot for an explanation. The 3 men are Andrew Carnochan, Thomas Donnelly and Augustine Hullin. Their official place of commemoration is at St Andrews Cemetery http://scottishwargraves.phpbbweb.com/viewtopic.php?t=364.
This churchyard has been cleared of stones except for a few which remain around the edge and is now theoretically a park although it is mostly used as a dog toilet.

James M Goodman of HBMS who died at Rangoon, Burmah on 8th November 1865 aged 28 years
I believe that HBMS in this context is Her Majesty's Britannic Ship which I think means he would be Royal Navy, hence his inclusion here.
