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).

    THE MONUMENTAL EFFIGIES OF SCOTLAND. 329 VI. THE MONUMENTAL EFFIGIES OF SCOTLAND, FROM THE THIRTEENTH TO THE FIFTEENTH CENTURY. BY ROBERT BRYDALL, F.S.A. SOOT. The custom of carving monumental effigies in full relief does not seem to have come into vogue in Scotland till the thirteenth century—this being also the case in England. From the beginning of that period the art of the sculptor had made great progress both in Britain and on the Continent. At the close of the twelfth century, artists were beginning to depart from the servile imitation of the work of earlier carvers, to think more for themselves, and to direct their attention to nature ; more ease began to appear in rendering the human figure; form was more gracefully expressed, and drapery was treated with much greater freedom. When the fourteenth century drew towards its end, design in sculpture began to lose something of the purity of its style, more attention being given to detail than to general effect; and at the dawn of the sixteenth century, the sculptor, in Scotland, began to degenerate into a mere carver. The incised slab was the earliest form of the sculptured effigy, a treat- ment of the figure in flat relief intervening. The incised slabs, as well as those in flat relief, which were usually formed as coffin-lids, did not, however, entirely disappear on the introduction of the figure in full relief, examples of both being at Dundrennan Abbey and Aberdalgie, as well as elsewhere. An interesting example of the incised slab was discovered at Creich in Fife in 1839, while digging a grave in the old church; on this slab two figures under tabernacle-work are incised, with two shields bearing the Barclay and Douglas arms : hollows have been sunk for the faces and hands, which were probably of a different material; and the well cut inscription identifies the figures as those of David Barclay, who died in 1400, and his wife Helena Douglas, who died in 1421.

  • Supplementary Reports 2006
    BELFAST, 2006 Supplementary Reports A Item 1 – BUSINESS BOARD – Supplementary Report Delegates to other Churches The Church of Scotland General Assembly (2006) The Rt Rev Dr REH Uprichard reports: The General Assembly of the Church of Scotland met in Edinburgh from 20 to 26 May 2006. I was privileged to represent our Church along with my Chaplain, the Rev Joseph Andrews, and Mr George Ferguson, Executive Officer of the Belfast City Mission. We were accompanied by our wives, Maisie, Susan and Janie. We were warmly welcomed by our friends in the Church of Scotland and greatly appreciated their generous hospitality. The various receptions, and events, organised by both Church and State, afforded opportunity to make useful contact with delegates from a wider representation of Churches. This year a number of important issues were debated by the Assembly. Perhaps the most controversial was a proposed Declaratory Act regarding Civil Partnerships asking that the Assembly declare that: “A minister or deacon who conducts any service marking a civil partnership does not commit a disciplinary offence.” In the course of a lengthy, passionately argued, well conducted and informative debate, a counter motion stating that: “Whereas the Word of God contained in the Scriptures of the Old and New Testaments in all its parts teaches that all people are to engage in human sexual relations only within the relationship of marriage between one man and one woman…the General Assembly enact and ordain as follows: No minister or deacon shall conduct any service marking a civil partnership.” was defeated by 322 votes to 314.

  • Parishes and Congregations: Names No Longer in Use
    S E C T I O N 9 A Parishes and Congregations: names no longer in use The following list updates and corrects the ‘Index of Discontinued Parish and Congregational Names’ in the previous online section of the Year Book. As before, it lists the parishes of the Church of Scotland and the congregations of the United Presbyterian Church (and its constituent denominations), the Free Church (1843–1900) and the United Free Church (1900–29) whose names have completely disappeared, largely as a consequence of union. This list is not intended to be ‘a comprehensive guide to readjustment in the Church of Scotland’. Its purpose is to assist those who are trying to identify the present-day successor of a former parish or congregation whose name is now wholly out of use and which can therefore no longer be easily traced. Where the former name has not disappeared completely, and the whereabouts of the former parish or congregation may therefore be easily established by reference to the name of some existing parish, the former name has not been included in this list. Present-day names, in the right-hand column of this list, may be found in the ‘Index of Parishes and Places’ near the end of the book. The following examples will illustrate some of the criteria used to determine whether a name should be included or not: • Where all the former congregations in a town have been united into one, as in the case of Melrose or Selkirk, the names of these former congregations have not been included; but in the case of towns with more than one congregation, such as Galashiels or Hawick, the names of the various constituent congregations are listed.

E-mail: [email protected] Julian Luxford, FSA, School of Art History, University of St Andrews, 79 North Street, St Andrews KY16 9AL, UK. E-mail: [email protected] The great majority of Scottish parish churches owe their present appearance to reconstructions carried out from the later eighteenth or nineteenth centuries. It was the view of the authors of this paper, however, that in many cases those reconstructions had been relatively superficial, and that medieval work might have survived under what could, in some cases, be little more than a modern veneer. To test this view, a survey was carried out of all medieval parish sites within the dioceses of Dunblane and Dunkeld. The findings from that survey are summarized in this paper. The loss of medieval parish churches in Scotland has been so great that there is a widely held view that too few survive for a detailed understanding of pre-Reformation parochial architecture to be reached. In a paper published in 1939, for example, it could be

    Case Study Protecting and enhancing Scotland’s historic buildings Protecting and enhancing Scotland’s historic buildings One of the great advantages PTSG brings to the FM industry is its bundled services provision. This often sees its engineers inspecting clients’ buildings from a holistic perspective, identifying areas where further services or products would improve the building – even finding work of an emergency nature. This saves clients the time and cost of finding different suppliers and often leads to a strong, long-term relationships with PTSG and contracts that are multi-disciplinary in nature. PTSG began its relationship with Historic Scotland in 2016 by providing vital lightning protection services, testing and maintaining systems to safeguard and preserve some of the country’s most valued buildings. Until 2015 Historic Scotland was an executive agency of the Scottish Government and was directly responsible to Scottish Ministers for safeguarding the nation’s historic environment and promoting its understanding and enjoyment. Its functions have since been transferred to Historic Environment Scotland (HES), the lead public body set up to investigate, care for and promote Scotland’s historic environment. ‘Working safely is the essence of PTSG and all that we do.
