Dunblane Cathedral, built from around 1150 with an originally free-standing tower. After being open to the elements for three centuries after the Reformation the nave was re-roofed in 1889-93. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/dunblane/cathedral/index.html

Dunblane Cathedral is seen from an oblique angle in sunshine. The main church stretches back from right to left and the square tower is towards its left-hand end. There are gravestones set amid grass in the foreground.

A sunset view of Dunblane Cathedral. The cathedral was built from around 1150 and the tower was originally free-standing. After being open to the elements for the better part of three centuries the nave was re-roofed in 1889-93. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/dunblane/cathedral/index.html

A sunset view of Dunblane Cathedral. The image shows the end of the cathedral in the right centre of the frame, and it extends back and to the left. On the left of its far end is a tall square tower. There is a graveyard this side of the cathedral and both sides of it and in the background is a spectacular sunset.

Had a fantastic walk near Dunblane today. The forecast predicted some showers but we got lucky!

I live for country walks like this

A gravel trail lined with gorse bushes which are full of yellow flowers. In the distance are tall pine trees. There is a blue sky with white fluffy clouds.

Dunblane Hydropathic Hotel, Dunblane, Scotland between ca. 1890 and ca. 1900. Views of landscape and architecture in Scotland Scotland Dunblane

The image depicts the Dunblane Hydropathic Hotel in Scotland, viewed from a vantage point across the road. The hotel is a prominent feature with its intricate architectural details and tower-like structure. Surrounding the building are trees and greenery, indicating a rural or semi-rural setting. In front of the hotel, there's an entrance marked by a gate, which adds to the formal look of the location. The photograph has a sepia tone, suggesting it may have been taken some time ago, possibly between 1890 and 1900. It captures not just the building but also hints at the surrounding environment and the style of architecture prevalent during that era in Scotland.

This image depicts a picturesque scene in Dunblane, Scotland. The central focus is the stone bridge that spans across a river flowing through the town. The bridge's structure suggests it might be from an earlier time period due to its simple and solid design.

Adjacent to the bridge, there is a small building with a tall tower, which resembles a church or a historical structure commonly found in such settings. The church stands out with its pointed roof and steeple, adding to the charm of the scene.

The surrounding landscape is lush and green, indicating a rural or semi-rural environment. A few individuals can be seen on the bridge, walking along its length, which gives a sense of scale and context to the size of the structure. The overall color palette of the image is muted, with earthy tones dominating the scene, enhancing the tranquil atmosphere.

In terms of historical context, this image likely dates back to around the turn of the century or earlier. It captures a moment in time when such landscapes and architecture were part of everyday life in Scotland. The presence of the individuals on the bridge suggests that it was a functional structure for both locals and visitors at the time.

Overall, the image provides a glimpse into the pastoral beauty of Dunblane and its architectural heritage.

The stained glass at #Dunblane #Cathedral is amazing

3 panes of stained glass at Dublane Cathedral. They are in art nouveau style and blue tones predominate. Jesus is in the centre pane, looking quite psychedelic. Other figures look on in praise, in the left and right panes. Text across the bottom dedicates them to the husband and children of Grace Donaldson, 1966.

4 extremely tall panes of stained glass from Dunlane cathedral, in are nouveau style. Red predominates. The panes are extremelu busy, with many figures. To be honest I'm not quite sure what's going on, but it is very pretty.

On the 13th March 1996 Thomas Hamilton shot and killed 16 children and one teacher at Dunblane Primary school, before shooting and killing himself. The children were all 5 or 6 years old.

We will never forget.
