Kilmory: the main settlement area before the clearances of 1826-8, with remains of a village and old burial ground on the riverbank (NG30SE 1). Here lies a 7th/8th century sandstone shaft with a plain cross incised on one side, a 'marigold' cross on the other (NG30SE 1.1). No trace survives of the church mentioned by Martin Martin in 1694. Here also, where a nursery of birch and rowan, Scots pine, alder and hazel has matured, is the remains of the former laundry for Kinloch Castle, a good five miles out of sight of the castle and its guests (NG30SE 48).
