St Ternan's Scottish Episcopal Church, Muchalls
description: St Ternan's church is the oldest in the Diocese of Brechin. The centre section was built in 1828/31 replacing an old chapel located in the grounds of Muchalls castle. Later additions were made, including a gallery, (since removed) and the lengthening of the nave to accommodate larger congregations. The last major change in 1865 came with the building of the chancel. At this time the "Episcopal Chapel at Muchall. St Ternan’s is a lovely church, most of the original pews are still in place from the days it could seat 250 of a congregation. There is a stained-glass window in the East wall above the altar depicts Jesus as the Good Shepherd, and a font with a unique history. Church is used for worship on Sunday 10:30am service.
