The Strachur Smiddy

The forge at Strachur Smiddy

This delightful visitors attraction is the original smiddy of Strachur, lovingly maintained and looked after by local volunteers. It offers an interesting reminder of times past. Especially for the young visitor the implements, artefacts and photographs provide a valuable aid to learning and give a realistic insight into an important aspect of Scotland’s rural history. From time to time visitors can enjoy demonstrations of horse shoeing and the crafting of metal items. There is a gift shop selling locally produced art and craft.
