Alturlie Point, Chapel NH c. 715 494 NH74NW 2
Nothing can now be seen of a chapel and burial-ground which are said to be associated with St Columba. In 1914 Wallace noted the discovery of 'bones' at a depth of 0.9m within an enclosure measuring 33m by 16.5m; a building which stood within the N end of the enclosure may have been the chapel.
