Letter dated 12/6/2003 from Donald MacIntyre, Gott, giving information about Charles MacLean of Kenovay (site of the present Craft Shop) who was employed as a stud groom by David Adams, Scotland`s most famous Clydesdale horse breeder and exporter. Charles cared for shipments of mares and fillies for the six week journey to Australia.
Charles’ great-nephew tells us that “when Charles arrived in Wellington, New Zealand, he would stay at the home of a cousin MacLean. After disembarking the Clydesdale horses, Charles was told in Gaelic to have a bath because he smelled of horses”.
