Hilton of Cadboll is a medieval chapel site in Cromartyshire, Scotland, notable for its association with an early medieval cross slab of significant archaeological importance. The site, located approximately ninety metres north-north-west of Parkside, comprises the remains of a chapel structure alongside a Pictish symbol stone, indicating occupation and religious use from at least the early medieval period. The cross slab represents an important example of Pictish stone carving tradition, though the chapel itself likely dates to the medieval period when earlier sacred sites were frequently reoccupied or rebuilt. The monument is recorded within the Historic Environment Scotland database and remains an important locus for understanding both Pictish material culture and the Christianisation of northern Scotland.
