Description

Dalrymple Horn Elphinstone Burial Ground - Chapel of Garioch, Grampian - Places of Worship in Scotland | SCHR

This is an impressive, Gothic-style burial enclosure for a wealthy local family, which was built in around 1798. It stands alongside the medieval church remains of Logie Durno (see separate site) and on first glance one could be forgiven for thinking the burial enclosure was part of this church. It is possible that part of the burial enclosure was built using stone from the ruined church.
