Glenmore, a glen of Fortingall parish, Perthshire, extending 3 miles eastward along the southern skirts of conical Schiehallion, then 1¼ mile south-south-eastward along the Dull border into junction with Strath Appin. It takes down the Alt Mor rivulet to Keltney Burn; and was anciently covered with the forest of Schiehallion, the roots of whose pine trees long served the neighbouring peasantry as excellent fuel, whilst those of its oaks were manufactured into hones for scythes, and were readily bought in the surrounding country.—Ord. Sur., sh 55, 1869.
