From the Wikipedia article

Uamh Mhòr (older spelling Uaighmor, also anglicised Uam Var) is a summit located in the Kilmadock parish in Stirling council area, Scotland, situated north of the River Teith between Callander and Doune. The name means "great cave", referring to a large cave in the cliff face which was a hideout for brigands into the eighteenth century. The peak is actually a southern top of Uamh Bheag to the north; despite the name suggesting a smaller hill, Uamh Bheag is actually higher at 664 metres (2,178 ft) compared to just over 600 metres (2,000 ft).
