Moirlanich Longhouse

Beautifully conserved cottage giving unique insight into rural family life in 19th-century Scotland

This beautifully conserved cruck-framed byre dwelling nestled in Glen Lochay offers a unique opportunity to visit a traditional rural home, virtually unchanged since its last inhabitant left in 1968. Inside, the family’s living quarters are separated from the cattle byre by a wooden partition. Unusually, it retains original features such as the hingin’ lum, box beds, Scotch dresser and layer upon layer of patterned wallpaper.

Owned and Managed by the National Trust for Scotland.
