Castle Semple Collegiate Church (HS)

Castle Semple Collegiate Church (HS)
A late Gothic church, with a later three-sided east end with windows of unusual style.
Founded in 1504 by Lord Sempill, the church had seven priests to say masses for the family. Only a few years after building the church Lord Sempill was killed at the Battle of Flodden. His superb funerary monument is inside. Located next to Castle Semple and Barr lochs, both important for their plants and birds. The RSPB have a visitor centre at the south end of Castle Semple Loch.
