Various | "Inveraray, in Gaelic, Ion-ar-ao-reidh is the modern name of the parish. The appellations by which it was formerly distinguished, Kilmilieu & Gleneray were either given in consequence of its being the cell of some monk or from a glen which forms a considerable part of the district. The river which runs by Inveraray, in Gaelic, Ao-reidh, is a contraction of Ao a privative (not) and Reidh, Smooth is evidently contrasted with Sio-reidh always smooth, the name of another river near the town remarkable for its smoothness From Ao-reidh is derived Glenao-reidh the valley through which the river passes, and Ionar-ao-reidh the flat ground on both sides the mouth of the river or a Piece of flat ground at the mouth of a rapid rough river The parish is bounded on the south-west by the parish of Kilmichael Glassary; on the south and south-east by Loch Fine; on the east by Loch Fine and the parish of Kilmorich, on the north & North-east by the parish of Glenorchy [continued on page 2] |
