| ABBEY OF ST MARY OF DEER (Remains of) | Abbey of St. Mary of Deer. (Remains of) | "Pratts Buchan" | 021 | [Continued from page 77] design and proportions. Standing at the western entrance, we may fancy a building, lofty and long, with no great profusion of architectural ornament, yet chaste and graceful in all its parts. Slender pillars, a high-pitched roof, long lancet-shaped windows of narrow lights; the font near the door; the high altar in the far east - all meant to shadow forth some article of the Christian faith."

021 | This church has only just been removed. Dr. [Doctor] Pratt in his history of Buchan says, in speaking of the Episcopal Churches of Deer, in page 89. "The next was built in 1766, on the north bank of the river, at a short distance above the bridge, and is still standing. It is a large unsightly building, capable of accommodating about 500 worshippers. Having fallen into disrepair, and some difficulties having arisen relative to its restoration, it was abandoned, and the present ecclesiastical edifice erected in the village to supply its place." |
