The rural community of McLellans Mountain is located east of Kirkmount. This area was named from after McLellans Brook which flows in the area and was named after John McLennan, who settled at the mouth of the brook.
John and Donald Fraser erected a saw and grist mill here about 1797. Seventeen settlers had moved to McLellans Mountain by 1806.
