Montrose Mausoleum is located in the Scottish village of Aberuthven, Perth and Kinross. Dating to 1736, it is a Category A listed building.[1] It stands in the kirkyard of St Kattan's Church.[1]
It is believed architect William Adam allowed his 15-year-old son, John, to do some work on the structure, for his name is in an inscription in its northern wall.[1]
Several Dukes of Montrose are interred in the structure, including James Graham (1682–1742), the last being in 1836.[1]
