Kilmartin Stones


The present Parish Church dates from the early 19th century, though there had been earlier churches on the site. The churchyard has an important collection of early Christian and medieval carved stones, known as the Kilmartin Stones.
Originally, the flat medieval slabs covered graves. After the Reformation, many were moved and in 1956 they were moved to a former mausoleum in the cemetery to protect them from weathering. The early stones were the work of Irish stonemasons from Iona.
