Aultlarie Farm

Probably dating from the early 1800s, and interpreted for the 1930s, "Aultlarie" farm steading (including the farmhouse) is the largest in situ building on the Museum's site.Traditional in form for a local small farm the steading comprises, a three horse stable, cattle byres, a barn, and a dairy.

"Aultlarie" is the original name for both the farm and the adjacent stream, probably coming from the Gaelic "Allt Làirigh" meaning "Burn of the Gorge".

From the mid 1800s, the farm, then owned by Balavil Estate, was farmed by Paul Grant, active member of the Badenoch & Rothiemurchus Farmers Society.Grant's family continued until the mid 1900s and after World War II the farm was taken over by Robert Kirk until the land was acquired for the Museum in 1987.

Also to be seen at or near the Farm are crops, livestock, implements, a cottage, railway halt, garage and 'Glenlivet Post Office'.
