Archaeology Notes

NM83SE 20 8815 3265.

(NM 8816 3265). Chapel (NR) (rems of)

OS 1:10,000 map, (1976)

The remains of the chapel consist of the grass-grown wall-footings of a small rectangular building measuring about 8.2 metres E-W and 4.1 metres transversely within walls about 1 metre thick. There are traces of an entrance towards the centre of the south wall but there are no identifiable remains within the building. Later cultivation has obliterated all traces of the burial ground, though gravestones were still visible in 1868-9. It has been suggested that the dedication of the chapel was to St Maelrubha.

Surveyed at 1:10 000 scale.
