View across to Kilmartin from the side of the valley. The dark clump of trees on the right hide the graveyard that dates as far back as the thirteenth century. The white building houses the Kilmartin Museum, which is adjacent to the visitor centre. Whilst the number of buildings that make up Kilmartin is pretty small, the area is rich in archaeological sites of significance, especially its linear burial cairns, standing stones & stone circles, and ring-marked rocks. At the foot of the valley lies the natural hill fort of Dunadd.
