In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Ardpatrick like this:
Ardpatrick, a hamlet and a headland at the N side of the mouth of West Loch Tarbert, and at the SW extremity of Knapdale, Argyllshire. The hamlet is 10 miles SW of Tarbert, and has a post office, with money order and savings' bank departments, under Greenock. The headland is said to have been the landing-place of St Patrick, on his way from Ireland to Iona.
Ardpatrick is now part of ARGYLL AND BUTE Council. Click here for graphs and data of how ARGYLL AND BUTE has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Ardpatrick itself, go to Statistics.
