Tour Scotland Photograph Nave Dunblane Cathedral


Tour Scotland photograph of the Nave in the Cathedral in Dunblane, Scotland. This Cathedral was once the seat of the bishops of Dunblane, 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. It contains the graves of Margaret Drummond of Stobhall, a mistress of King James IV of Scotland and her two sisters, all said to have been poisoned.
