Standing Building Recording (December 2012)
NO 58263 68699 This collection was assessed in December 2012. The collection of late-medieval and post-medieval stones comes from the old parish church of St Laurence at Edzell where the Lindsay family had endowed a chantry in the aisle, which is now the only part of the church remaining, apart from the burial vault. The four tomb slabs and the font which make up the collection are of very high quality, and have recently undergone conservation at Historic Scotland’s Conservation Unit.
This and other inventories of carved stones at Historic Scotland’s properties in care are held by Historic Scotland’s Collections Unit. For further information please contact: hs.collections@scotland.gsi.gov.uk
