Newhall Point Chapel and Burial Ground is a medieval ecclesiastical site located at Balblair in Ross-shire, Scotland. The chapel and its associated burial ground represent a place of worship and commemoration from the medieval period, typical of the scattered rural kirkyards that served local communities across the Highlands. The site retains physical remains indicative of its religious function, though like many such monuments, it reflects the fragmented archaeological record of medieval Scotland's smaller parishes and settlements.
