Old photograph of Tombae church and school in Moray, Scotland. This Scottish church was designed by John Gall of Aberdeen, but completed in 1844 by Bishop James Kyle, replacing a simple mass house further upstream. The scenic rural site overlooks the River Livet, farmland and hills, now scantily populated. Gothic Revival church with pinnacled west front and lofty, elegant vaulted interior lit by large traceried windows. The former chancel served as the presbytery until 1862 when replaced by a neighbouring house, and then as a school until 1903.
