| 説明 | Church: built 1756. Traditional T-plan. Incorporates the north wall of nave of Preceptory. Coursed rubble. Scroll skew gabled. 'Bird-cage' belfry with bell by John Meikle, 1700. Round-headed windows. Fore-stair of south arm. Addition (later 19th cent.) at W. end. Preceptory: 13th-15th century Gothic church. Originally cruciform. Transepts and Crossing (with Tower over) remain. Ashlar. Corbie-step gables. Angle-buttresses. Traceried windows. Square tower with polygonal stair-turret. Curious and atmospheric relic; the crossing and two transepts of the only house of the Knights Hospitallers of St John of Jerusalem in Scotland. The “vanished” choir may actually never have been built: the parish kirk occupies the site of the nave. Exquisite traceried windows, one in each transept, and ribbed vaulting to transept and crossing, fine carved archway in the latter, with tomb recess and piscina in the south transept. |
