What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Lamb Holm as Chapel (medieval). 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.
Lamb Holm is associated with a medieval chapel and may have been linked to early Christian pilgrimage or healing traditions, though specific saints or cures connected to the site are not clearly recorded. The site's remote island location suggests it may have held spiritual significance for local communities.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
