For context, see Image, where this structure can be seen right of centre. The mausoleum for the Arthur family of Levenbank (or of Dillichip) dates from 1797, and therefore pre-dates the existing church building. Out of shot to the left is the Image; it is appropriate that the structures are side by side, because Robert Arthur was married to Marion Turnbull. There was also a business connection: the firm of Turnbull & Arthur carried on calico printing at Dillichip; after the death of Robert Arthur, the works were acquired by Archibald Orr Ewing. There is a badly worn inscription on the back wall of this classical vault. See Image for a view from within.
