Haddington, Saint Catherine's Chapel

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Haddington, Saint Catherine's Chapel as Chapel (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Linked to Saint Catherine of Alexandria, a Christian martyr venerated in medieval Scotland, the chapel and its associated holy well may have been sites of pilgrimage and healing rituals. Local tradition sometimes connects such chapels to pre-Christian sacred sites, with Catherine's feast day (November 25) historically marked by customs such as the blessing of wells and offerings for protection and fertility.
