What is recorded here
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records North Uist, Hougharry, Kilmuir Old Church as Church (19th Century). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Linked to St. Moluag, the church and surrounding area may have earlier associations with a Celtic monastic site, though the well itself is not specifically mentioned in local folklore. The name "Kilmuir" derives from "Cill Mhuire," meaning "church of Mary," suggesting later Marian devotion in the area.
