Scottish couples sometimes married by "hand-festing", or holding hands on a bridge over water.



From "Walking in South Lorn": "To the west of Kilmelford the mainland area of Kilbrandon and Kilchattan culminates southwards in the blunt snout of the Degnish peninsula. Close to the present church of Kilninver, at the eastern end of Glen Risdale, is the tiny ruined graveyard of the earlier mediaeval church of Cill na h-Inbhir, dedicated to St. Beoan. Nothing now remains of the old church itself, but the graveyard contains memorials dating back to 1721."
