Holy Trinity Church And Burial Ground, Spynie

Holy Trinity Church and Burial Ground in Spynie features square rubble walls that enclose the site of a medieval parish church. The burial ground's walls, built in 1828, are coped and include a carriage entrance on the south side, flanked by a pair of cast-iron spearhead gates. Inside, there are various square burial enclosures, including one for the Leslie of Findrassie family, which has a possibly re-used lintel dated 1766. The burial ground contains several tomb slabs, with the earliest dated 1588, and 18th century mural monuments, including a fine Corinthianesque aedicule with an enriched frieze dated 1793.
