Title: Old Bandawe Church and Mission Graves

Description: The second site of missionary work of the Free Church of Scotland's Livingstonia Mission led by Dr Robert Laws after the initial failure to establish a mission at Cape Maclear in memory of Dr. David Livingstone. Located on the northern lakeshore south of Nkhata Bay, after they moved north from Cape Maclear in 1881. Problems with fever meant this was a short stay before the final move up to Kondowe (Livingstonia) on the escarpment. Alongside Christianity the mission promoted education, medical and industrial services.
