Churches & Religion
Our researches so far have not established that there were any other religious centres for the Culbokie community to attend closer than the church at Ferintosh.
Urquhart Church is currently being converted into a private house, but the remains of the previous church and the old cemetery are well worth a visit. The original bell can be seen in the Culbokie Church Centre. See also below in the Gallery.

The Highland Historic Environment Record (HER) database for the parish of Urquhart and Logie Wester contains several references to churches and a selection is included here. The records often contain very little information apart from the location shown on a map and cross references to other sources of information.
