Notes

The NGR given is actually for St Moluag's Church (Kilmaluag) in this parish, since this was the medieval church of the parish (which was then presumably called Kilmaluag). Fasti vii, 171: 'In or near 1600 the parish church was taken from Kilmaluaig to Kilmuir, where it replaced an ancient chapel.'
