Clan Castles & Memorials
The Castle Sween includes a tower which stands as a memorial to the MacMillans. The other MacMillan memorial is a cross which stands in the locked church at Kilmory. The cross is visible through the glass church windows. Other medieval grave slabs can also be seen. This cross is recognised as one of the finest surviving examples of Celtic art in Scotland, and shows a chief of the MacMillans hunting deer.
