The 16th century church of Grandtully, dedicated to St Mary, was first mentioned in a document of 1533. It is a plain building, 79' x 23' but is remarkable for its painted ceiling at the E end, with heraldic and symbolic subjects. It is not known if the paintings ever extended the whole length of the building. The work was done c. 1636 by Sir William Stewart.
