26 sculptured stones from the Campbell family mausoleum.
The collection probably originates from the medieval parish church and is first mentioned in the 1300s.
The medieval Kilberry Cross, a broken cross-shaft, is the jewel in the collection.

Kilberry’s sculptured stone collection is thought to have come from the site of the medieval parish church on the Kilberry Castle estate, a little to the east of the castle itself.
The church is first mentioned in about 1350. It was burnt down in the 1640s by the Campbells of Kilberry to prevent the besieging Royalist force of Alistair MacDonald making use of it. The churchyard fell into disuse in the following century and probably now lies under the bowling green.
