What is recorded here

Situated on a marked N-facing slope. A rectangular graveyard (dims. 35m E-W; 50m N-S) defined by an earth and stone bank (Wth 2-2.5m; H 1.3m), and named 'Kyle Grave Yard' on the 1838 OS 6-inch map. Price (1946, 93) states there was no trace of any church here, and suggests it may have been used for burying unbaptised children.
