Caibeal Mhomhair, one mile SE of Lochbuy House, an old chapel standing in a Burial Ground, has been converted into a burial-vault for the lairds. The narrow window slits in the N and S walls near the E end and the window in the W end have been blocked up with masonry and the door in the N wall near the W end barred with an iron grill. It has been reroofed with slates, but the roof is no longer watertight, and a tablet ‘Consercrated 1500’ inserted over the door. The freestone mouldings outside the side window slits are still visible outside recent blocking, though much weathered. The window openings were 6” wide. (Photographed). Inside a broken stone font is visible. None of the slabs exposed in the churchyard bear early figural carvings.
