Glendaruel, a beautiful valley in Kilmodan parish, Cowal, Argyllshire, traversed by the Ruel, a salmon and trout stream which, formed by two head-streams at an altitude of 90 feet above sea-level, winds 10 ½ miles south-by-westward to the head of salt-water Loch Riddan. It takes down a road from Strachur Ferry to Colintraive, and contains a post office of its own name under Greenock. Glendaruel House, 19 miles NNW of Rothesay, is the seat of Robert Hume Campbell, Esq. (b. 1846; suc. 1875), who holds 14, 032 acres in the shire, valued at £2361 per annum.—Ord. Sur., shs. 37, 29, 1876-73.
