Title
Ballinbreich Castle Chapel / Chapel Hill / Glenduckie Chapel, Ballinbreich
Description
There is thought to have been a chapel located slightly to the east of the ruins of Ballinbreich Castle. In the 1840s it was noted that ‘the foundations of an ecclesiastical edifice’ could still be seen here. It is possible that this was the site of the medieval chapel of Glenduckie. If so, the chapel was already in existence in the 1450s and continued as a place of worship until at least the 1680s.
