East Fife

In Person

Sir John Leng was a 19th century entrepreneur from Hull who adopted Dundee and made his name producing a pioneering daily newspaper for the people. He commissioned the Gothic style chapel as a memorial for his first wife, Emily.

This charming A-Listed building was erected in 1895-7 to a design, by Dundee Architect Thomas Cappon, which reflected a miniature cathedral in 13th Century French style. It has a Caen stone interior and is adorned with gargoyles, and carvings by John Bremner. Enjoy the magnificent views from the hill-top location.
