St Mahew's Chapel

This building is a restoration (carried out from 1950-53, following historical research) of one that was dedicated in 1467. However, there is known to have been a chapel here in the fourteenth century. There may have been a religious building on this site from the early sixth century onwards. See LinkExternal link (at Canmore) for more information on the building, and for details of an incised cross-slab kept within it.
