The mausoleum was built in 1808 by James Byres in memory of Elyza Fraser. It is a large drum with a dome and oculus. It was built using very fine ashlar granite and has a frieze with the inscription ELIZABETH FRASER OF CASTLE FRASER MDCCC VIII. The single doorway is architraved and topped by a coat of arms and foliage swags, all in finely-carved stone. The elaborate metal gate in front of the door is locally said to be made from internal screens saved from the old church at Cluny before it was demolished in 1789.

This neo-classical mausoleum was built for Miss Elyza Fraser of Fraser Castle by her friend James Byres of Tonley, an internationally renowned architect. The drum-shaped mausoleum is topped by a dome with oculus and above the architraved doorway is a coat of arms and foliage swags, and the inscription: ELIZABETH FRASER OF CASTLE FRASER MDCCC VIII. The elaborate wrought iron grille is said locally to have been made from screens saved from the old church at Cluny, demolished in 1789. The mausoleum was completed in 1808, six years before Elyza’s death.
