Pabbay is a Medieval monument complex in Inverness-shire comprising a symbol stone, cross-marked stones, a chapel, and associated settlement remains. The site represents an important survival of Early Medieval and Medieval occupation on the island, with the symbol stone potentially dating to the Early Medieval period, whilst the chapel and settlement features reflect later Medieval use of the location. The cross-marked stones indicate Christian presence and practice at the site, consistent with the wider pattern of religious activity in the Hebrides during the Medieval period. Together, these elements provide evidence for the evolution of settlement and religious life on Pabbay from the Early Medieval through the Medieval centuries.
