Uisneach山新游客中心在2016年7月底面向群众开放。新的中心由考顿钢建造而成与旧小屋形成了鲜明的对比。露天剧场和公共空间将这两个建筑连接在一起，形成一个统一的整体。
The new visitors centre at the Hill of Uisneach opened its doors at the very end of July. The new centre, constructed in corten steel, contrasts against the old rendered cottage building. The amphitheater and public space between, joins the two contrasting structures together, creating a homogeneous whole.

“新的Uisneach游客中心蕴藏着多样的非凡故事。在有历史记录以来，这个地方曾是一个“欢迎空间”迎接着来圣山寻求新意的人们。除此之外，建造游客中心的过程与其令人振奋的结果一样重要。合作，技巧，想象力和感受力结合在一起诞生了这个新的遗迹游客中心。希望这个空间可以被来自全岛的游客所喜爱。” Alan Hill，2016年11月8日
“The new Uisneach Visitor Centre is a remarkable story in so many ways … for the first time in recorded history we have a ‘welcoming space’ for those coming to the sacred Hill out of curiosity or seeking renewal. On top of this, the process of delivering the Centre was as important as the physically electrifying result … cooperation, skill, imagination and sensitivity all combined to give us a new type of heritage visitor centre. ” Alan Hill (November 08th, 2016)
