(NS 7007 8401) Kirk o' Muir (NR) (Site of)
OS 6" map (1958)
A small graveyard adjoins the abandoned farm buildings of Kirk o' Muir. The earliest decipherable date, on a recumbent slab, is 1695. "K. of Moore" is shown on Pont's map of the early 17th century, but Edgar's map, surveyed in 1745, marks it as "Ruins". A chapel, dedicated to St Mary, appears to have been founded here about the middle of the 15th century, and to have stood for about 200 years; thereafter the district had no church for about a century.
