Old Travel Blog Photograph West Door Cathedral Dunblane Scotland


Old travel Blog photograph of the West Door of the Cathedral in Dunblane, Scotland. The Cathedral was once the seat of the bishops of Dunblane, also sometimes called 'of Strathearn, until the abolition of bishops after the Scottish Reformation. There are remains of the vaults of the episcopal palace to the south of the cathedral. Technically, it is no longer a cathedral, as there are no bishops in the Church of Scotland, which is a Presbyterian denomination. William Chisholme, the last Catholic bishop of Dunblane in 1561, later became bishop of Vaison in France.
