Detail of the rib vaulting & roof boss nearest to the S window of the hexagonal St Triduana's Chapel, Restalrig, Edinburgh, Scotland, UK. Built around 1477 on the orders of James III, over the well-shrine of St Triduana (Tredwell), a Pictish saint who sent her eyes to a local prince who had desired her because of their lustrous beauty. Her shrine had been a place of pilgrimage from much earlier times, the water renowned for curing eye complaints. Originally built as two vaulted storeys, the upper chapel & adjoining church were taken down on the orders of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland who declared on 21 December 1560 that: 'as a monument of idolatrie, be raysit and utterlie castin down and destroyed.'
