County of Inverness -- Parish of Kiltarlity and Convinth
[written on page] In a letter sent to the Revd. [Reverend] David Ross parish minister he states as follows "The parish is described in Shaws History of the Province of Moray as Kiltarlity and Conveth. When united not known. Conveth was a Vicarage dependent on the Priory of Beauly; Kiltarlity a Parsonage dedicated to St. Thalargus Again in the County Valuation made in conformity to the Act 1661 it is written Convinth and Kiltarlity, It appears that Kiltarlity and Convinth were district parishes having been united. The parish was called Kiltarlity and Convinth But gradually the last name was omitted. But I should recommend the full name the proper one.
Signed, David Ross

The walls of what was at one time the parish Church of Kiltarlity are still standing in the centre of the graveyard which is, with the interior of the building still used as a place of interment. The Church was built probably in the year 1626 as that date is still to be seen cut on a stone above the doorway, and disused about 1774 which is about the time of a Church being erected on Tom na Croiseige the site of the present parish Church which was built in 1829,it is situated a short distance South east of the Falls of Kilmorack. |
