The Quarantine Station on the Holy Loch, Scotland
In 1804 a notice appeared in the London Gazette confirming that “The King’s Most Excellent Majesty in Council” had ordered the Holy Loch to be the place where vessels bound for Scotland’s west coast ports should, if required, perform quarantine.
There are three known Superintendents – John Dood, probably the first in post, Andrew Pitcairn (serving from 1815 – 1833) and Captain Allen Chatfield (who served from 1833 until at least 1841) who all lived beside the complex with their families. In 1841 there were 5 other quarantine workers but as the station was not then at its busiest, there may have been more workers in previous years.
