Balnaboth Chapel, located in the Highlands of Scotland, is traditionally associated with Saint Bothan, a 6th-century Irish monk and missionary. The chapel and surrounding site were once linked to healing rituals and pilgrimages, with local folklore suggesting that Saint Bothan founded a monastic settlement in the area, and his name is connected to the nearby Bothy Hill and the River Bothy.
