Kilkenneth Chapel

About Kilkenneth Chapel

Now in ruins, this church building probably dates from the late Middle Ages. With its dedication to St Kenneth, a colleague of St Columba, it may have replaced earlier, less substantial structures on this site.

St Kenneth is said to have lived on Tiree in the late 6th century and to have accompanied St Columba on a mission to the Inverness area to convert King Brude to Christianity.
