Burns Monument and Gardens
About 1km (1/2 mile) from the Burns Cottage, just past the old kirk, this Grecian-classical monument was erected in 1823 in a ceremony attended by the poet's widow, Jean Armour. Later, it was replicated in Edinburgh on Calton Hill. The gardens overlook the River Doon and the famous arching bridge.
