Rosslyn Chapel - Ken & Teddy in Scotland

Continuing on their golf tour of Scotland, Ken and Teddy have visited Rosslyn Chapel, located south of Edinburgh in the village of Roslin in Midlothian.  This chapel was made very famous by Dan Brown in his fictional book "The DaVinci Code".  Built in the 15th Century by the Sinclair (St. Clair) family, it is sometimes linked to the Knights Templar and Freemasonry.  The Chapel is very old and in need of a great deal of repair. 


Neil and I visited Rosslyn Chapel a few years ago and spent time looking at all the architectural features and statutes, many of which apparently have Freemasonry connections.  Several of the members of the Sinclair family have held the position of Grandmaster of the Grand Lodge of Scotland.


Next, they are off to Dornoch for golfing at the Royal Dornoch Golf Club, which is located in Northern Scotland on the North Sea oil side.
