The grade-II-listed former Church of St Nicholas in Kyloe was built in the 18th century,[3] replacing a medieval building, and is now a private house.[4]

At East Kyloe, the ruins of a late 14th- or early 15th-century medieval tower house known as Kyloe Tower now form part of a complex of farm buildings.[5]

The nearby woodland area is a famous area for rock climbing and bouldering. Known locally as 'Kyloe-In-The-Woods' or simply 'The Woods', the crags are home to some of the toughest climbs in the UK.^{[citation needed]}
