Old Churches House, Dunblane - the old chapel
This small chapel behind Old Churches House Image is not regularly open to the public, but customers of the restaurant may ask to borrow the key. It has an interesting history: described non-comittally by Historic Scotland in the listing (category B, LB 26380) as a 'vaulted chamber' because it is unclear whether it was originally a chapel, ice-house or served some other purpose. But it clearly formed part of a larger building, possibly the Archdeacon's manse of the 16th century. It was restored to religious use when the nearby buildings became a church conference centre in the 1960s and is still occasionally used for worship. See Image for the inside and Image for a 1972 view, not long after its restoration.

Sign for The Tappit Hen, Dunblane
The form of pewter measure known as the tappit hen is peculiar to Scotland. The name is applied to measures characterised by having a body comprising a small straight-sided top section, a larger straight-sided bottom section and a curved section between. Typically, the measure has a domed lid that is raised by means of an erect thumbpiece located on a hinge at the top of the handle. (The early evolution of the tappit hen.
