History

Loch Ard Painted Version

Loch Ard was a clipper which was wrecked in the bight between Moonlight Head and Port Campbell, just off the Shipwreck Coast of Victoria, Australia in 1878. The name was drawn from Loch Ard, a loch which lies to the west of Aberfoyle, and to the east of Loch Lomond. It means “high lake” in Scottish Gaelic.Loch Ard belonged to the Loch Line, a major shipping line operating between Great Britain and Australia.
