Details Remains of a chapel, apparently of Catholic denomination also known as Chapel of the Seven Maidens, and graveyard enclosure, now disused. No further information. Keith writing in the 1730s suggested that the chapel was used for burial by a local family, including that of William Farquharson, the 'Black Colonel', in 1698 or 1699. The graveyard is depicted as disused on the OS 1st and 2nd edition maps. OS in 1967 recorded that there was no trace of a chapel within the graveyard, which comprises an enclosure formed of a turf covered bank circa 0.09 m in height, and circa 1 m wide.
