When the church was enlarged in 1636, a new
painted ceiling was placed over the eastern part of the building.
This was done at a time when King Charles was trying to make the church in
Scotland more like that in England. It is not clear however, whether
the ceiling was placed here to emphasize the area around the communion
table, or if it was because the laird had his pew in this part. The
ceiling is decorated with the arms of families connected with the Stewarts
of Grandtully, with depcitions of the apostles, and with a number of
suitable aph??? ???? is a panel showing a death scene
and the last judgement.
