Scope and Content Kilchiaran Farm, Kilchiaran, Islay, Argyll & Bute, from south-east The house and steading of Kilchiaran date from 1826 when a new farm with an Ayrshire tenant was established following the clearance of the old township of Kilchiaran. Its most distinctive feature is a semicircular inner cattle court about 58m in diameter. This shows the farm from the south-east with the semicircular wall of the cattle court which is entered from the rectangular courtyard aligned north-west/south-west. Behind can be seen the farmhouse and nearest to the camera is the milking parlour. Much of the milking parlour dates from the late 19th century while nearly all of the stable beyond dates from the original build in 1826. At the west end of the stable is a harness room and additional cart shed. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
