Tour Scotland Travel Video Sunny Winter Morning Drive To The Cathedral In Dunblan



Tour Scotland travel video of a Sunny Winter morning drive to the Cathedral in Dunblane, a town in the council area of Stirling, 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. The cathedralcontains 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. Dunblane is the point at which the M9 motorway ends and joins the A9 dual carriageway north towards Perth, Perthshire.
