St Llolans Cell, Broughton, Scotland

Against the SE angle of the Old Parish Church of Broughton are the remains of a barrel-vaulted structure, perhaps a post-Reformation burial aisle, which was rebuilt in 1926-7 as a chapel in the belief that it represented the cell of St Llolan, the 7th century bishop to whom the church is traditionally dedicated. This aisle measures internally 8'6" E-W x 14' N-S x c 8' high. There is a modern arched opening to the church on the W. The entrance to the "cell", situated in the N wall, is 2'7" wide. Beneath a window on the S there has been a gravestone inserted for preservation. It is dated 1617, and bears a shield with an inscription: Repair (e)d . . . 1725, which no doubt commemorates repair of a family burial place, very possibly the "cell" itself. However, Matcap shows that the inscription likely reads 'Repaired by Richard;Andre:Willliam:James:David: Tweedie's 1725'
