Prior to the building of the store, in the late 19th Century, there had always been a shop at Lock 8 from the early days of the construction of the Crinan Canal. Known as Cairnbaan Store it remained a functioning shop up until the beginning of the 21st Century when it was then converted into a house taking up the name Cairnbaan House. First owned by Neil Smith, Great Uncle of the current owners, the Ross family have preserved the building’s history, by retaining its original features. Stepping through the door is like stepping back in time. br brThe construction of the Crinan Canal was authorised by an Act of Parliament in May 1793. Building of the Canal which runs from Ardrishaig to Crinan began in 1794 and was completed in August of 1809. The idea behind the project was to enable trading vessels from the Clyde and the West Highlands to avoid the circuitous passage round the Mull of Kintyre. The Crinan Canal has been nicknamed ‘Scotland most beautiful shortcut.’ br brCairnbaan Store sold nearly everything, quite literally from aneedle to an anchor, and you could buy tickets for passage to America on the boat ‘The California’ pictured in the frame in the living room. The California was sunk by German U-boats in 1917 on her return journey from New York to Scotland. The store also had two petrol pumps which were located on the other side of the canal where the bus stop is today. Cars had to sound their horn for service and you can see the original sign in the kitchen today above the sink. br brCairnbaan and Mid-Argyll are a magical place to stay and explore. brbr LICENCE NUMBER: AR00119F EPC: F
