Ellan Munde, an islet of Lismore and Appin parish, Argyllshire, in Loch Leven, opposite Ballachulish and the mouth of the rivulet Coe. It contains the ruins of a church, founded, on the site of a Culdee cell, about the middle of the 10th century by an abbot of the name of Mund; and around the ruins is an ancient cemetery still in use. A former parish, including the island, and taking name from it, comprehended Glencoe and the adjacent parts of Appin, and now is incorporated chiefly with Lismore and Appin, and partly with Kilmallie.
