Killantringan, the historic burial ground near the beautiful Calgary Bay on the Isle of Mull, offers a serene glimpse into the island’s past. Its name, possibly deriving from “Church of St. Shrongan,” hints at ancient ecclesiastical foundations, though no visible remains of a church stand today. Located amidst the stunning coastal landscape, the cemetery provides a tranquil space for reflection, contrasting its quiet solemnity with the vibrancy of the nearby popular beach.

The graveyard is home to a collection of weathered, ancient grave slabs, some dating back as far as the 17th and 18th centuries. These old markers, often adorned with traditional West Highland carving styles, tell silent stories of the generations who lived and died in this remote corner of Mull. Exploring these historical stones provides a tangible connection to the islanders who shaped the community around Calgary over centuries, offering insights into their lives and enduring legacies.

Killantringan serves as a poignant reminder of the continuous human presence in the Calgary area, from ancient times to the present day. Its accessibility near a major tourist attraction like Calgary Bay makes it an easy yet meaningful detour for visitors. The blending of natural beauty with historical resonance makes Killantringan a special place for those seeking to connect with Mull’s heritage and the quiet dignity of its past.
