Description
The Old Barn at Ledard Farm, located in Loch Ard, is an 18th century long, single-storey barn built with a rectangular plan and constructed from rubble. It is situated to the north of the main farm steading. The east elevation features two doorways, positioned approximately at the center and far right, with no other openings, suggesting that the barn was intended for livestock or storage. Originally, the barn was cruck-framed and thatched; however, the original roof timbers and thatch have been replaced with a pitched slate roof, while the lower sections of the cruck frame remain visible in the inner walls.
Ledard Farm has been the site of the Hairst Kirn for at least two centuries, a gathering of the Clan Gregor and its associates to celebrate the harvest's completion. This event includes feasting and dancing, with the dancing traditionally taking place in the Old Barn.
