Innerpeffray Chapel & Graveyard, Perthshire..
In 1507, John, 1st Lord Drummond endowed four chaplains, or priests, in his chantry chapel. Their job was to pray for the souls of the king and queen, for Drummond himself, his wife Elizabeth, and their daughter Margaret, a former mistress of King James 1V.
A generation later the Drummonds raised their chantry chapel to the status of a collegiate church (from the Latin collegium, meaning a group of individuals following one set of rules).
After the Reformation the medieval church became the family mausoleum. The most significant change made was the formation of a room with a fireplace, sited above the vestibule at the west end.
The adjacent 18th-century historic library is in the care of the Innerpeffray Mortification Charitable Trust.
Property is open summer only (April to September).

Visit the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Galleries at Westminster Abbey
High above the floor of Westminster Abbey, the Queen's Diamond Jubilee Galleries, a new permanent exhibition in the beautiful 13th century triforium, display the Abbey's greatest treasures and tell the story of the Abbey's thousand-year history.
Find out more about visiting the Galleries:
Visitors reach the Galleries through a new tower, housing a staircase and lift. Named the Weston Tower, this is the first major addition to the Abbey church since 1745. The tower is outside Poets’ Corner, tucked between the Abbey’s thirteenth century Chapter House and sixteenth century Lady Chapel.
As you ascend the Tower, you can see amazing views of the Palace of Westminster and the medieval Chapter House. A lift is available for those with reduced mobility.
The Galleries tell the story of Westminster Abbey in four themes:
Building Westminster Abbey charts the foundations of the first Benedictine monastery in AD 960, through its life as Edward the Confessor’s Church, and the extensive repair programme during Sir Christopher Wren’s role as Surveyor of the Fabric (1698 – 1723). Visitors are able to see for the first time a column capital from the cloister of St Edward the Confessor’s Church (around 1100), along with an intricate scale model of Westminster Abbey (1714-16) commissioned by Sir Christopher Wren with a massive central spire which was planned, but never built.
Worship and Daily Life gives insight into the life of a working church with daily worship at its heart. Artefacts demonstrating the long history of worship in the building include The Westminster Retable, (1259 – 69) the oldest surviving altarpiece in England from Henry III’s Abbey, and the Litlyngton Missal, an illuminated 14th-century service book made for the Abbey’s high altar.
Westminster Abbey and the Monarchy looks at its special relationship with the Crown. The Abbey, a Royal Peculiar under the direct authority of the Monarch, has been the Coronation church since 1066. Mary II’s Coronation Chair (1689), created for William III and Mary II’s joint coronation (the only joint coronation in English history) is on display as is the marriage licence of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge (2011).
The Abbey and National Memory shows how Westminster Abbey has developed into a place of commemoration and remembrance. As well as kings and queens, many notable Britons such as Geoffrey Chaucer and Sir Isaac Newton are buried and memorialised here. Since 11th November 1920 the Abbey has also become a particular focus for Remembrance following the burial of the Unknown Warrior. Three early guidebooks, including The Gigantick History of Westminster Abbey, which was designed for children in 1742, reveal the Abbey’s special place in the heart of the nation from a much earlier time.

The Coronation Chair at Westminster Abbey
Twenty-six monarchs including Her Majesty The Queen on 2nd June 1953 have been crowned in the Coronation Chair in Westminster Abbey.
The chair which was made about 1300 is the oldest piece of furniture in the UK still used for its original purpose.
In this video, step inside St George’s Chapel in Westminster Abbey where the chair is on public display. View the chair up close in detail and an artist’s impression of how it would have originally looked before centuries of wear and tear took their toll.

Every year Westminster Abbey welcomes over one million visitors who want to explore this wonderful historic building. Thousands more join us for worship at our daily services.
Kings, queens, statesmen and soldiers; poets, priests, heroes and villains - the Abbey is a must-see living pageant of British history.
The Abbey has been the coronation church since 1066 and is the final resting place of seventeen monarchs. The present church, begun by Henry III in 1245, is one of the most important Gothic buildings in the country, with the medieval shrine of an Anglo-Saxon saint still at its heart.
A treasure house of paintings, stained glass, pavements, textiles and other artefacts, Westminster Abbey is also the place where some of the most significant people in the nation's history are buried or commemorated. Taken as a whole the tombs and memorials comprise the most significant single collection of monumental sculpture anywhere in the United Kingdom.
