Ardnadam Farm is the site of an ancient cromlech in the village of Ardnadam, Argyll and Bute, Scotland.[1][2][3][4] The relic was, according to popular tradition, the grave of a king who was named after Adam.[5] Ardnadam Farm, located near Loch Loskin, was supposedly so-called in accordance with the tradition.[6] The stones were later considered to be fragments of a Druidical altar.[7]

A nearby street is named Cromlech Road.[8] It runs between Ardnadam's Ferry Road and High Road (the A885) in Sandbank.
