Cille choirill church in lochaber scotland on a very very cold morning


Cille Choirill is a 15th-century Roman Catholic church situated in Glean Spean in Lochaber, Scotland. Dedicated to St Kerrill, (also called "Cyril"), it was possibly built by Cameron of Lochiel.

After lying roofless for some time, it was repaired in 1932/33 with financial support from Nova Scotian descendants of Lochaber emigrants.

Situated in the Roman Catholic parish of St Margaret's, and the former civil parish of Kilmonivaig, it is used for mass once per month during the summer months.

The Gaelic poets Iain Lom and Dòmhnall Mac Fhionnlaigh nan Dàn are buried in the churchyard.
