Title: Killichonate Burying Ground
Post by: AnneD on Wednesday 10 August 05 13:14 BST (UK)

I have ancestors buried in Killichonate Burial Ground  -  I would like to know if this cemetery is accessible to the public,  and to have any other information on its condition and history.

Hi Anne, I am very interested in this site and believe there was once a church way back in 7th/8th century. What were your ancestors names - there are no gravestones and is in a very isolated area with only a few houses. Liz.

I realise it is an old thread but just came across it whilst search for something else.

Whereabouts is Killichonate?  I presume it is the Killiechonate that Google shows between Spean Bridge and Roy Bridge but I don't remember seeing a burial ground.  I can see the house with that name on the 1st Edition 6" OS Map but can't see any burial ground.

The HER  (http://her.highland.gov.uk/SingleResult.aspx?uid=MHG44749)says no evidence of graves.
