What is recorded here

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Killiecrankie as Chapel (period Unknown)(possible). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Killiecrankie is associated with St. Fillan, a 7th-century Irish monk and healer who is said to have founded a monastic site in the area. The name derives from "Cill Fheilí Chrannaidh," meaning "church of Fillan of the birch tree," and the site is linked to traditions of healing and pilgrimage, particularly for ailments of the eyes and skin.

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