CHAPEL (Site of) | Ruin | John Murchie Kilbride Archibald Cook Shannochie Alexander McKenzie Shannochie |
259.07 | This Ruin is situate near the junction of two streams, a little to the west of Torr na' Uain, and on the farm of "Kilbride Bennan" John Murchie an intelligent old man living on the farm (with many other of the old inhabitants) call it the "priests' house", others again call it a "Chapel," I would be disposed to agree with the latter, there is a small plot of ground about the ruin, which has the appearance of a small burying place, which does not seem to have been ever disturbed by the plough. The object is analagous in appearance to the sites of the other Chapels in Arran. |
