Dawyck Chapel, Category B listed church in Drumelzier, Scotland.
The stone chapel stands within the grounds of Dawyck Botanic Garden, part of the Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh network, eight miles from Peebles.
In 1837, the previous church ruins made way for the current chapel, which features a medieval font and a bell from 1642 recast in 1791.
The chapel belongs to the Presbytery of Peebles and maintains its role as a religious site while also serving as a family mausoleum.
The chapel opens for wedding ceremonies and remains accessible through the Dawyck Botanic Garden, providing visitors a combination of architectural and natural attractions.
The name Dawyck potentially originates from Gaelic words referring to an ox combined with Old English terms for camp, measuring 416 acres of land.
