A good sized Glen running from "Monevechadan" in a north west direction until it terminates at "Tom a' Chrochain" three fourths of a mile north of "Cruach nam Mult". This Glen is very narrow & rocky particularly so at the south eastern extremity where the County road crosses Allt Gleinn Bhig. There are a number of Caves on the hill forming the southern boundary the most particular is "Uamh mac Eion Riabhaich, and another a short distance west, but which has no name. Sig: [Signification] Little Glen.
Although "Gleann Beag" seems to have been the name originally given to this place, of the other, or Hell's Glen it is unaccountable how it crept in except, (as quoted by the authorities) it be attributed to the excentricities of a farmer who many years ago resided at "Ardno", and who owing to his strange manner became very unpopular in the neighbourhood. The latter is well known by tourists. |

A very remarkable cave at the foot of "Creag an Fhithich" situated on the southern slope of "Gleann Beag" - the mouth is arched like and is about four feet high naturally formed through the cavity of the rock - from the mouth inwards there is a gradual incline forming a passage to Compartments or Chambers. These Chambers according to tradition were used as places of concealment during troublesome periods. The more remarkable are recorded in the Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account] of the Parish. There is another cave further west, but of little importance. Pronounced by Authorities as if written (Uav macque Eion Reoch)

All around the Cave there are smaller vaults, resembling cellars, and from one part of it a narrow passage leads to a small apartment not unlike a sleeping chamber. This cave is remarkable for having been the sanctuary of one of the lairds of Ardkinglass; who according to tradition of the country, having been defeated & oppressed by some powerful neighbour, was obliged to conceal himself, and a few followers in this cave for a whole year, during which his retreat was not discovered by the enemy. It is called from this incident Uamh Mhic Iain Reoich - "Hoi Iain Reoich", "The Son of Swarthy John"; the patronymic name of the family of Ardkinglass. |

A well known name applied to a mountain at mouth of Glen Croe the south and western slopes covered with large masses of broken rock. The east formed by huge cliffs the higher and most towering called the Cobbler, from its somewhat resembling (when viewed from certain points) a shoemaker sitting at work. a little South east of it is an immense detached peak named Arthur's Seat. (sheet 135)
"A lofty threatening mountain-crag called Ben Arthur or the Cobbler. This terrific rock forms the bare summit of a huge mountain and its nodding top so far overhangs the base as to assume the appearance of a cobbler sitting at work; from whence the country call it an greasaiche crom the crooked shoemaker"

Donald McDonald Arrochar |
134 |
A well known name applied to a mountain at mouth of Glen Croe the south and western slopes covered with large masses of broken rock. The east formed by huge cliffs the higher and most towering called the Cobbler from its somewhat resembling (when viewed from certain points) a shoemaker sitting at work. a little South east of it is an immense detached peak named Arthur's Seat. (sheet 135)
"A lofty threatening mountain-crag called Ben Arthur or the Cobbler. This terrific rock forms the bare summit of a huge mountain and its nodding top so far overhangs the base as to assume the appearance of a cobbler sitting at work; from whence the country call it an greasaiche crom the crooked shoemaker"
