STRACHAN, D:
Small lancet windows depicting Queen Margaret, St Andrew, St Ninian, St Columba and William Wallace. Illustrated except for Ninian.
Donated by the artist "
on condition that the Cockburn Association should hand over to one or more of the War Funds the cost of the 3 windows in the nave". 1922 (Russell queries 1929?), dedicated 1934. The previous stained glass windows  were of "inferior quality of glass" and incorrect (e.g. listed Margaret's death as 10th June instead of 16th Nov 1093; Malcolm's as 6th June not 13th Nov 1093.) The President of the Old Edinburgh Club gave a lecture on the castle in 1912 pointing this out. It was thereafter decided (1915) to replace the windows with "stained glass of an appropriate and homogenous design"
"So perfect are they in their setting, the architectural relationship is as complete as the windows in Chartres" W Wilson.
