Brisbane Aisle, Burial vault in Largs, Scotland.
The Brisbane Aisle features squared ashlar masonry walls, a slab roof with lower pitch than the gables, and marble memorial panels on its east-facing wall.
Built around 1695, this burial vault was constructed for the Shaws of Kelsoland family and later became the final resting place for the Brisbane lineage.
The structure bears heraldic panels with initials 'P.S' and 'I.S' representing the Shaws, plus an armorial device displaying mullets for Shaw and annulets for Montgomerie.
The burial vault and surrounding kirkyard remain open to visitors from late May through early September between 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM without entrance fees.
Major-General Sir Thomas Makdougall Brisbane, who served as colonial governor and had Brisbane, Australia named after him, rests within this vault.
