  • Dunblane Cathedral
    Property in Care no: 126 Designations: Scheduled Monument (SM90109), Listed Building (LB26361) Taken into State care: 1889 (Ownership) Last reviewed: 2011 HISTORIC ENVIRONMENT SCOTLAND STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE DUNBLANE CATHEDRAL We continually revise our Statements of Significance, so they may vary in length, format and level of detail. While every effort is made to keep them up to date, they should not be considered a definitive or final assessment of our properties. Historic Environment Scotland – Scottish Charity No. SC045925 Principal Office: Longmore House, Salisbury Place, Edinburgh EH9 1SH DUNBLANE CATHEDRAL SYNOPSIS Dunblane, on the east bank of the Allan Water and possibly named after St Blane (died c.590), is believed to have been a religious centre by the 9th century. In the 12th century the bishopric was re-established and a stone cathedral church built. Comprehensive rebuilding took place after 1237, and by the 1300s the cathedral comprised an aisled nave, incorporating the original tower, an aisle-less chancel and an adjoining north range housing sacristy, chapter house and treasury. After the Protestant Reformation (1560), parochial worship was relocated to the chancel. The neglected nave fast fell into ruin. The chancel and north range were restored by James Gillespie Graham in 1816-19. Major restoration of the nave was undertaken in 1889-93 to a design by Robert Rowand Anderson. Although the cathedral is in state care, it continues as a place of worship by the Church of Scotland. Among the fine furnishings are rare late medieval canopied stalls, considered amongst the finest in Scotland. CHARACTER OF THE MONUMENT Historical Overview: 6th century AD - St Blane (Blàthan), according to tradition, is born on Bute and buried at Kingarth monastery there (St Blane's).

A collection consisting of sketches and drawings by Lieut.-General G.H. Hutton, supplemented by a large number of finished drawings (some in colour), a few maps, and some architectural plans and elevations, professionally drawn for him by others, or done as favours by some of his correspondents, together with a number of separately acquired prints, and engraved views cut out from contemporary printed books. The collection, which was previously bound in two large volumes, was subsequently dismounted and the items individually attached to sheets of thick cartridge paper. They are arranged by county in alphabetical order (of the old manner), followed by Orkney and Shetland, and more or less alphabetically within each county. Most of the items depict, whether in whole or in part, medieval churches and other ecclesiastical buildings, but a minority depict castles or other secular dwellings. Most are dated between 1781 and 1792 and between 1811 and 1820, with a few of earlier or later date which Hutton acquired from other sources, and a somewhat larger minority dated 1796, 1801-2, 1805 and 1807. Many, especially the engravings, are undated. For Hutton’s notebooks and sketchbooks, see Adv.MSS.30.5.1-21, 24-26 and 28. For his correspondence and associated papers, see Adv.MSS.29.4.2(i)-(xiii).

  • Our Hymn of Hope
    Scottish Charity No. SCOO7072 No. Scottish Charity Our Hymn of Hope & (Tune: Hosanna, loud Hosanna!) e We’re looking for a Minister of Sacrament and Word; Denny Westpark One who’ll dearly love us, one who clearly loves the Lord. You’ll need a sense of humour and the meekness of a lamb, The patience of a donkey when with Harry, Dot or Tam! The hide of a rhinoceros would come in handy too When people are insistent that you hear their point of view. You’ll work like any beaver, you’ll be stronger than an ox, And you’ll listen with attention to the one who talks and talks. You’ll work with other churches that make up Falkirk West, We’re all in this together and we must do our best to care for one another and promote real unity within the Church of Jesus and the whole community. When it comes to preaching, we know you’ll do your bit; to comfort or to challenge, just as you see fit. People will respond to you, their comments will be many; And rest assured your sermon will be talked about in Denny. So what have we to offer? we thought you’d never ask. The pages of this profile describe our mammoth task. We need YOU to help us - man? woman? - we’re not fussed! We will pledge our loyalty, our love and mutual trust! www.westparkchurch.btck.co.uk Clerk: Etta Eadie t: 01324 823 962 IM: Rev Phyllis Wilson e: [email protected] t: 01324 832 257 e: [email protected] Overview of Denny “Denny is not the bonniest of places at the moment.
