Graffiti hunt finds 600 marks in Orkney's St Magnus Cathedral.
(C) BBC. '22A survey of St Magnus Cathedral in Kirkwall has recorded 600 separate graffiti marks.
They include symbols left by masons, a complex medieval charm, pencil marks made by wartime service personnel, and a hidden Blue Peter sticker.
Local tour guide Melba Leonard even discovered a mysterious palm-sized star.
The volunteer graffiti hunter told BBC Radio Orkney she had been excited to take part in the survey.
She had been hoping to find a cross made by the Vikings.
"When they went on pilgrimage, they would leave a vertical mark. If they came back, they would add the horizontal mark," she said.
"That's what I was looking for."
Instead, she found a star which has been described as a mystery by archaeologists.
She said it was "exciting" that the marks had been highlighted in a new guide to the cathedral, which dates back almost 900 years.
