Site of a chapel. According to the antiquary Warden, an old chapel once stood within the grounds of Tealing House, 'about 100 yds north of the mansion' and an aumbry from the chapel is built into a stackyard dyke of the Home Farm and other sculptured stones in the Home Farm building may have come from the chapel. Recent investigations by Ian Fraser in 2005 concluded that the 'aumbry can probably be identified with the late medieval ogee niche-head photographed at Tealing by J D Gilruth in 1938. A fragment of a medieval grave-slab photographed at the same time is presumably one of the other stones referred to, and the stones (from a variety of sources) photographed by Gilruth at Tealing also include a cup-marked stone. That the stones derive from the chapel, rather than the nearby parish church cannot be confirmed. Annotated prints of these images indicate that the stones were subsequently moved to Fotheringham' (presumably Fotheringham House). 'Their present location is unknown'.
