A chapel, dedicated to the Virgin Mary was thought to have been built around the 9th century a mile east of the Perthshire village of Meigle. After falling into disrepair a mausoleum was built on the site in 1861. The structure, built in a romanesque style, is the final resting place for members of the Kinloch family from the nearby Kinloch House.

It is situated on the south side of the A94 road and easily spotted due to its prominent tower. A small graveyard is also on the site.

History:
Built in 1861 for the Kinloch family on the site of a pre-reformation chapel.
