The site of the early medieval keeill known as St Bartholemew's Chapel or Keeill Pharlan has been lost to coastal erosion. In the year 1855 Dr Crellin had found, not far below the surface of the soil, a "cist" or lintel grave protruding from the cliff, in which were portions of a skeleton.  The 1870 1:2500 scale Ordnance Survey map shows that only a small section of the burial ground survived at the cliff edge at that time. The coastline has since eroded further and the whole site has been lost.
