. Elgin past and present : a historical guide / by Herbert B. Mackintosh. t into the ^___ ._ . Bishops Palace, Elgin, and described atpage 33. The arms on the sinister shield (Fig. 71)are :—A fess chequy between two crownsin chief and a cross crosslet fitchee in base.Above the shield a mitre. These are thearms of Bishop David Stewart, the builderof this tower (see pp. 35, 59). A stone withhis arms is also built into the walls of theBishops Palace at Elgin. On the same wall almost directly overthis group is a single panel just touchingthe corbelhngs at the top. The arms are(Fig. 72) :—On a fess between three crosscrosslets fitchee as many stars (Tulloch).Above the shield a mitre. These are the arms of Bishop WilliamTulloch. The association of the arms of Bishop David Stewart (1461-1476), who was succeeded by Bishop Tulloch (1477-1482), the one near thefoot and the other at the top of the tower is intelligible, but why BishopPatrick Hepburn (1535, died 1573) should have his arms in such closejuxtaposition with those of Bishop David Stewart is not apparent.. Fig. 72.—Shield of Arms atSpynie Castle. Churchyard of Kinneddar A couple of miles further north we have the churchyard of Kinned-dar. Kinneddar in the tenth century was regarded as one of the mostholy places in the north, St Gerardine having established an oratoryin 934, and after his death the church of Kinneddar was built. 268 ELGIN PAST AND PRESENT Like Birnie, Kinneddar was one of the earliest churches and residencesof the Bishops of Moray. Bishop Richard (1187-1203) built a house here, and it would appear to have been the Bishops residence before thebuilding of Spynie as almost all the early charters are dated Kinedorin Moravia. Traces of this house were to be seen, until recently, ina field to the north of the churchyard ; of the Church there are someslight remains of foundations in the churchyard. There is also an old cross. It has a round shaft with ornament attop, and is fixed in a socket forming two
