Description:
- This 16th century chapel has the only surviving pre-reformation stained glass left in Scotland. The glass is in four brilliantly coloured heraldic roundels on the south wall. The chapel was built by Michael MacQueen and was later bequeathed to the Hammermen, a guild of metalworkers, who then adorned the space with their work. This wonderful building has been recently restored and is now owned by the Scottish Reformation Society. It plays occasional host to concerts - call for the latest details. Admission: free.
