[3] The chapel was built by Sir David Murray, Baron of Tullibardine (formerly of Ochtertyre),[4] of Tullibardine Castle,[1] as a family chapel and burial site.

Members of the Murray family (subsidiaries of the Dukes of Atholl)[1] were buried there until 1900.

An armorial plaque on the north external wall of the chancel displays the coat of arms of David and his wife, Isabel Stewart.

[1] The chapel was rebuilt or extended with transepts and a small tower around 1500 by David's grandsons, William Murray (died 1513),[5] who built the "part towards the west where his father's coat of arms is impaled,"[5] and Andrew Murray.

Arms on the south transept gable relate to the marriage of Andrew Murray and Margaret Barclay.
