What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Islay, Bridgend, St Columba's Episcopal Church as Church (late 19th Century) (1888). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
St Columba's Episcopal Church in Bridgend, Islay, is associated with St Columba, a 6th-century Irish monk and missionary who played a key role in the Christianization of Scotland. While the church itself dates to the late 19th century, the site may reflect longstanding local traditions linked to Columba, who is said to have visited the island of Islay and is venerated in several local holy wells and sites across the Hebrides.
