Tour Scotland Video Dancer And Drummers Chilli Festival Scone Palace Perth Perthshire
Tour Scotland video of a dancer and drummers at the Chilli Festival on ancestry visit to the gardens at Scone Palace, by Perth, Perthshire, Scotland. The Palace that can be visited today was finished in 1808. Built of red sandstone with a castellated roof, it is one of the finest examples of late Georgian Gothic style in the United Kingdom. During the early 19th century the Palace was enlarged by the architect William Atkinson. In 1802, David William Murray, 3rd Earl of Mansfield, commissioned Atkinson to extend the Palace, recasting the late 16th century Palace of Scone. The 3rd Earl tasked Atkinson with updating the old Palace whilst maintaining characteristics of the medieval Gothic abbey buildings it was built upon, with the majority of work finished by 1808.

Old Photograph Free Church Kildonan Island Of Arran Scotland
Old photograph of the Free Church in Kildonan, Island of Arran, Scotland. The former church now unused was built of random coursed sandstone and harled walls with a slated roof. The eastern gable retains some of the church’s former grandeur, with a rounded doorway framed by projecting post and lintel supports. Originally the eastern gable had a bell housing at the top. Two flat headed windows with triple frames lie on each side of the doorway arch. The nave walls have been altered but may have included similar windows. The western gable wall has been similarly modernized and hosts two simple flat-headed rectangular windows.
