Summary
[edit]DescriptionSt. Triduana's Well, Restalrig.jpg |
English: St. Triduana's Well, Restalrig, Edinburgh. The building in front of the kirk dates back to the 1460s-70s when James III founded a collegiate chapel whose priests were to say masses for him. Only the lower of two storeys survived the kirk falling victim to the Reformation ordinance that any "monument to idolatrie" should be "raysit and utterlei castin downe and destroyed". The surviving chamber continued in use as a burial vault. During later restoration its propensity to flood led to the realisation that this was St. Triduana's Well, famed as a place of pilgrimage in the Middle Ages. Before the Reformation the Chapel had housed an altar dedicated to the obscure Pictish female saint who was credited with the ability to cure the blind. Pilgrims came here to bathe their eyes in the hope of a miraculous cure. The chapel was extensively restored in 1836 and 1906, when the present roof was added. |
