The extensive building of distilleries in Campbeltown after 1815 was due to the introduction of new government licensing regulations in 1814-15. In 1886, Alfred Barnard visited what was then Campbeltown?s smallest distillery, which had 4 bonded warehouses containing 600 casks, and a small spirit store. This building is a remarkably intact survivor, despite loss of the other warehouses since closure in 1926.
