About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Archattan Priory was founded in 1230 by Duncan McDougall for the Valliscaulian order of monks. In the middle 1400s the priory was remodeled; the refectory and choir were expanded. In 1510, Prior Duncan MacArthur revived the religious ceremonies for the community. It is believed that it was used for services until 1730.

1545 saw the end of monastic life in this priory and it was administered by John Campbell. He used the buildings as a private dwelling. In 1602 the endowments were taken from the priory, so the buildings was passed down through Campbell's heirs.

These ruins are now maintained by Historic Scotland. Inside are some fine examples of carved stones. Ardchatten House is still a residence, but the ruins are available for visiting. Lovely gardens surround the priory.
