Mr McNiven mentions that always when ploughing there he comes on large blocks or slabs of stones quite close to the surface but that he has never lifted or disturbed ant of them. "The name Kilninver is compounded of two Gaelic words viz [meaning] (Kil) a burying place and inbhir the foot of the river or water, which is descriptive of the situation of the ancient burying place or Chapel from which the name of the parish is derived."
