062 | The site of an ancient chapel, dedicated to St. Jerome. "There was another small chapel, called the Red Chapel, not far from St. Ninians, built on the top of the eminence east of the town called Hillhead, which was dedicated to St. Jerome. The chapel was principally erected for the inhabitants of Fungarth. The building is now levelled; but its site is enclosed by a stone wall. From the name of the saint, the people of Fungarth are ludicrously called to this day Jorums". New Statistical Account |
