| CILL LEUNTAIG | Cill Leuntaig Cill Leuntaig |
Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] McLeod, Funery Mr. Angus Cameron, Righemòr |
053 | A small, but ancient graveyard situated on the south bank of Killundine River close to its junction with the Sound of Mull. The proprietor, Col. [Colonel] Cheap, has planted it, so that it is not at present used as a burying place. The ancient parish in which Killundine is situated is termed Killuntaig. It is believed that the Farm of Killundine, on which there is an ancient burying place, was so designated. The burying place or Graveyard is still termed Killuntaig. "Leuntaig" is said to have been a Pictish Lady converted to Christianity, who on being so, founded the religious establishment known as Killuntaig, or possibly, Cillfhuntaig, or the Church or Cell of Leuntag". |
| Supposed STONE CIRCLES [Killuntaig] | (Supposed) Stone Circles | Colonel Cheap, Killundine | 053 | Two small, but well marked, circles of small stones, about eight yards in diameter, situated a quarter of a mile north of Killundine. They do not present the appearance of a positive Druidical Circle, but as there is nothing like tradition connected with them in the district, and on the supposition that they are so, the proprietor Col. [Colonel] Cheap will not allow them to be removed. They are in full view, and about half a mile south of Carn na Cailliche, and may have had some connection with it. |
