Text Appearing Before Image:
e accompanying plate and woodcut are fairspecimens. In general, there are the remains of ecclesiastical buildings in these towns, such asthe church tower and porch of Dysart; but few of them, like the beautiful Church of St Monance—engraved in this collection—are sufficiently complete to form separate illustrations. The scantyremains of an old building in Dysart, traditionally called the chapel of St Dennis, were someyears ago converted into a smithy. There is, among the late General Huttons manuscriptcollections, a sketch of it before its utilitarian adaptation; but It is a simple crow-stepped building,with square windows and an ordinary castellated vault, having no apparent ecclesiastical decora-tions. Near Dysart, on the top of a sea-beaten rock, are the ruins of the castle of Kavenscraig,the ancient fortress of the Sinclairs, commemorated in the tragic ballad of Eosabel. It Is a fineobject, from its picturesque and commanding position, but has no peculiar architectural merits.
