The Clan Grant Society Centre at Duthil is a former church with two mausolea in its grounds where some of the past Clan Chiefs are buried.
The church at Duthil was in the diocese of Elgin Cathedral in its early days. The first Presbyterian minister was Andrew Henderson who was ordained in 1625. The present building was erected in 1826. The last sermon in public worship in the church was made by one of our present Members, the Rev. G.V.R. (Jim) Grant MA.
It was a landmark day in 1986 for the Clan Grant Society when the owner, Gerald Brandon-Bravo from Whitebridge, gave the church to the Society.
Duthil Church is owned and managed by the Clan Grant Society and is set in the midst of the Clan territories. It is planned to develop it into a resource centre to hold a collection of objects relating to Clan history and to be open to the public during July and August. Its upkeep and maintenance are provided by donations from the Society.
