Fochabers, Gordon Episcopal Chapel And Parsonage, Episcopal church building in Fochabers, Scotland

Gordon Episcopal Chapel features a two-level gothic design with the chapel positioned above the former school and parsonage, constructed from ashlar sandstone.

Built between 1832 and 1834 by architect Archibald Simpson, the chapel received funding of £900 from Elizabeth Brodie, wife of the fifth Duke of Gordon.

The chapel contains Scotland's largest collection of Pre-Raphaelite stained glass windows, created by Morris and Co with designs by Edward Burne-Jones.

The building provides access for individuals with mobility limitations through CCTV relays transmitting services to a ground-floor chapel room.

The church temporarily closed in 1848 due to liturgical disputes but reopened in 1852 following a petition from local Episcopalians to Charles Gordon-Lennox.
