Background
History
The original Moy Hall was built in about 1700 to replace Moy Castle which was on Moy Island on Loch Moy. Jacobite supporter Lady Anne Farquharson-MacKintosh entertained Charles Edward Stuart here in February 1746. Lady MacKintosh learned that government forces were advancing to capture Stuart and she arranged for four of her men to hide by the roadside when the government troops approached. The new Moy Hall, built nearby, is a somewhat smaller but comfortable home which retains various features from the old place, such as the wooden panelling.
