Full Description

NC92SE 17 989 204.

A chapel dedicated to St Peter is supposed to have stood on the banks of the Craggan Burn at Cille-Pheader.
J Mackay 1894; H Morrison 1883; D Beaton 1909; J A Smith 1876

Local enquiries failed to locate the site of this chapel; but at the junction of the Allt Cille Pheadair and the Craggan Burn (NC 98972046), between the streams, is a disturbed area too obscure for any conclusions to be drawn.
Visited by OS (W D J) 20 May 1960
