chamber 72 feet 3 inches in length and 22 feet 4 inches in breadth externally. The old pointed windows (Fig. 1420) still remain in the south wall, three of them having a mullion and simple tracery, that of the eastmost being very good. The eastmost window has also good mouldings in [Illustration: FIG. 1421. Covington Church. Mouldings of South-East Window.] [Illustration: FIG. 1422. Covington Church. Arms in North Doorway.] the jambs and arch (Fig. 1421). The second window from the east is narrow and ogee headed, and probably marks the position of the rood screen. An old doorway remains, though built up, near the north-west angle. In the arch there is inserted a shield (Fig. 1422) bearing the arms of the Lindsays, to whom the castle belonged, and the letters W. L. and the date 1659. The east end has been entirely altered, the east window having probably been built up, and an outside stair erected to give access to a gallery at that end. AULDCATHIE CHURCH, LINLITHGOWSHIRE. Before the Reformation Auldcathie formed a separate parish, but it is now included in the parish of Dalmeny, of which it forms a detached portion. The ruins of the old church (Fig. 1423) now stand neglected in the middle of a large field. The walls are much reduced, and are gradually crumbling away, but the plan is still quite entire. The structure measures, internally, about 30 feet in length by 15 feet in width. There has been a door near the west end, both in the north and south walls, two windows in the south wall, and none in either of the north, east, or west walls. There is a recess for a benitier, an ambry, near the south door, and an ambry in the east wall. Some more ancient stones seem to have been [Illustration: FIG. 1423.--Auldcathie Church. Plan.] used in building the latter. The features are all so simple that it is difficult to fix the date of the edifice, but it does not appear to be very old. In the ancient _Taxatio_ this church is valued at only 4 marks. As it is not taxed in _Bagimond’s Roll_, it appears to have belonged in the thirteenth century to some religious house. RESTALRIG COLLEGIATE CHURCH, MID-LOTHIAN.[194] According to the legendary history of the Blessed Virgin Triduan, Lestalrig or Restalrig, a village to the east of Edinburgh, might claim a very great antiquity. Triduan is said to have died at Restalrig in the year 510. A church can be traced here as early as the twelfth century, and it afterwards became the parish church of Leith. This edifice is frequently mentioned in connection with gifts bestowed upon it. The church of Restalrig was erected into a Collegiate establishment by James III., and was rebuilt by him, as stated in the Papal Bull of 1487. James IV. was also a benefactor to the foundation, and endowed an additional chaplain in 1512, and twelve years later another rectory was annexed to the church by James V.
