Glencreran, an Argyllshire glen on the mutual border of Ardchattan parish and Lismore and Appin. It is traversed by the Creran, descending 11 ¼ miles west-south-westward to the head of salt-water Loch Creran. A mission-station of the Church of Scotland, conjoint with another in Glenetive, is in Glencreran, and has a schoolhouse as its place of worship. There is also an Episcopal church, St Mary's (1878; 60 sittings), a 13th century Gothic edifice, with good stained glass.—Ord. Sur., shs. 53, 45, 1877-76.
