Description
The James Stewart Memorial, including railings, is located near Killin Parish Church in a prominent position. This late 19th century Celtic cross memorial was erected by the Gaelic Society of Perth in honor of the Reverend James Stewart, who lived at the nearby manse (now Invertay House) and was the first translator of the New Testament into Scottish Gaelic. The memorial signifies Stewart's contributions to the Gaelic-speaking community and his important role in Scottish history.
The monument features a stepped stone base topped by a square main body with inscribed panels on the North and South sides. Above this is a polygonal shaft, and it is crowned with a Celtic cross set on a tapering shaft. Surrounding the monument are cast-iron railings with decorative arrowhead finials.
The materials used include grey and pink polished and unpolished granite, as well as sandstone.
