Just a thought: is this thread in the right forum? I always find myself going to the one for Architecture and Buildings first.

Madderty Kirk, just a 1km walk down the road. A simple harled church of 1668 was built in the stormy times of the covenanters; there is a date of 1668 on the west gable. N.B. This is an extreme AI blow-up

Good question, Jason. Not sure.
I remember we struggled with this on the other forum too and in the end compromised so there are now two threads, one in Urban for general church shots. And one in Architecture with pics more focused on architecture and maybe details and snippets. Something like that anyway.

But I can do whatever you guys want me to do. Let's see what fotoi thinks, as it is his thread.

Near to home - Innerpeffray Chapel

A Chapel of St Mary at Innerpeffray (“capella sancte marie de inerpefry”) is mentioned in the Inchaffray charters of the 13th and 14th centuries. Ancient yew trees and a medieval altar are all that remain of the first chapel on what was probably a pre-Christian sacred site.


The present chapel was built on the ruins of the original mediaeval structure in 1508 by John, Lord Drummond, who also paid for priests to pray for the welfare of the Drummond family. By 1542 the chapel had become a collegiate community, a non-monastic group of clergy living on site.
