Holyrood Chapel, Newburgh

Image: © Bill Harrison Taken: 28 Oct 2017

Built as a school in 1838 and adapted as a chapel of ease for Foveran kirk ca. 1882; the unnecessary tower with its pretentious fake bell louvres was erected in 1892. Foveran kirk some 1.5 km to the south-west is now out of use and the chapel serves as the de facto parish kirk for Newburgh.
