Baile-na-cille Kirk, 1826-9 A plain version of the T-plan Parliamentary church, with gabletted bell canopy instead of bellcote and round instead of Tudor-arched windows. Inside survives the original pulpit with precentor's box and a splay-angled gallery on cast-iron columns. Additions of 1878 included the vestry and pews. Former manse (now Baile-na-Cille), 18th century, repaired and remodelled with addition of lofty wing, 1824 , using stone from the 18th century church. The old graveyard beside Uig Sands marks the site of the medieval parish church, and of its successor of 1724.
