Kilmory Chapel is a site of medieval and early modern ecclesiastical and funerary significance located in Argyllshire, Scotland. The chapel, which dates from the medieval period, stands associated with an important high cross known as MacMillan's Cross and a collection of carved tombstones that reflect the burial practices and commemorative traditions of the region over several centuries. MacMillan's Cross itself represents a notable example of medieval stone carving, characteristic of the sculptural traditions found throughout the Scottish Highlands and Islands. The assemblage of monuments at Kilmory, including both the cross and the surrounding carved stones, documents the sustained use of this burial ground and its importance to local families, particularly the MacMillan kindred, from medieval times through the early modern period.
