In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Beinn Dorain like this:
Ben Doran or Doireann (Gael. ` stormy mountain '), a mountain in Glenorchy parish, Argyllshire, near the eastern border of the county, 3 miles SE of the efflux of the Orchy river from Loch Tulla. It rises to an altitude of 3523 feet above sea-level; and it has been rendered famous among Highlanders by the Gaelic muse of Duncan Ban M 'Intyre.
