At Machar's Haugh is a chapel dedicated to St. Marcarius or Macarius or Machar according to some authorities but the Name Book (1867) states that though a ruin had been here in living memory no local knowledge of a chapel survived.

(Location cited as NJ 4897 1812). Well, perhaps related to St Machar's chapel. No trace remains.
