Scope and Content View from south-east showing Arbuthnott Aisle, Arbuthnott Church, Kincardineshire The oldest part of St Ternan's or Arbuthnott Church is the chancel, dating to the mid-13th century. The Lady Chapel, now the Arbuthnott Aisle, and the bell tower were built by Robert Arbuthnott in 1500. The church was restored in 1896. Built in red sandstone in late Gothic style, the aisle is two-storeyed. There is a chamber or Priest's Room, on the first floor. The pinnacled buttresses are decorated with some of the finest late Gothic carving which survives in Scotland. This aisle was constructed and endowed by the Arbuthnott family (local landowners) as a private chantry chapel and burial vault. It would have been served by a priest whose main duty was to pray for the soul of the founder and his family. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
