Lednock power station is a small turbine hall with a single 4MW turbine. It generates power using water carried via tunnel and pressure pipe-way (with surge tower located to the NW of the station) from Loch Breachlaich (see separate item). The tailrace discharges into Loch Lednok which is contained by the Lednok Dam and forms storage for St. Fillans Power Station (see separate items). Lednok power station is a relatively standard example of a small scale power station forming a component of a larger scheme. Some additional interest is gained from the design of the exterior with round arched window surrounds and the use of red sandstone with ashlar dressings for the construction of the station. PL Payne, 1988, 24; E Wood, 2002, 50.
