Willie's stool

This milking stool has was left at Auchindrain by Willie Weir, who worked as a farm hand for Eddie MacCallum from 1956 until the MacCallum family left in 1963. The stool was pictured in the record photographs taken by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland in February 1963, just before the Township became a museum, and has remained within the byre at Eddie’s House ever since.
