The old clachan or chapel of Fasnakyle is situated "nearly opposite Invercannish, 7 1/2 miles from Struy". The area of the enclosure, with a small space around it, is occupied by the graves of the inhabitants of the glen.

At NH 3347 3069 are the ruins of a Roman Catholic chapel with associated graveyard, still used. The chapel measures internally 11.4m NE-SW by 5.7m NW-SE over walls 0.8m thick and 1.8m high with a door in the SE wall. The walls are of large roughly faced stones pinned with smaller stones and bonded with lime mortar. There are several graves within the chapel and a stoup lies near the chapel doorway.
