The old chapel
Scalan College 1717-1799
Aquhorties Seminary
"The time by the goodness of God will come, when the
Catholic religion will again flourish in Scotland; and then, when posterity shall enquire,
with a laudable curiosity, by what means any sparks of the true faith were preserved in
these dismal times of darkness and error, Scalan and the other colleges will be mentioned
with veneration, and all that can be recorded concerning them will be recorded with care. . ."
(Rev. John Geddes, Rector of
Scalan 1762-65)

Scalan on a fine Summer's Day
"Peaceful bounty flowing
Past like the dust blowing,
That harmony of folks and land is shattered.
Peat fire and music,candle-light and kindness...
Now they are gone
And desolate these
lovely lonely places."
