"In the eastern part of this parish, about half a mile from Loch Duisk, there was a chapel which was dedicated to
St. Ninian, and which was called, in Gaelic Kil-an Ringan, signifying the chapel of St. Ninian; and a [place ?] of
adjacent was called the Chapel Croft. At the place where the chapel stood there is now a gentlemen's Seat
which is called Kilsaint Ninian, or Kil-an-Ringan, the last whereof was the ancient name of Celtic times"

"Chapel Croft has been partially excavated by the present occupier, who found no
Sepulchral remains, thereby proving that the enclosure was not a place of interment."
