Conaglen memorial
The Conaglen estate was purchased from the Macleans of Ardgour (The Douglas Archives compiler's maternal family) by the earl of Morton (The compilers paternal family) after the death of Alexander, 13th of Ardgour in 1858.
An Episcopal Chapel was added to Conaglen House in 1862. This was subsequently de-consecrated, and a several of the artefacts* were removed to Ardgour Parish Church, amongst them the memorial pictured above (click to enlarge).
Candelabra and a brass eagle lectern were transferred to St Mary's Church on the Dalmahoy estate.
