'In Camore Wood, about 170 yards SE of E end of Loch-an-treel, is a standing stone - a large monolith of sandstone, roughly quadrangular at base, tapering to a point at its upper extremity. It is 8' 9" in height above ground, 2' 5" across W face at base, and 1' 10" across N. RCAHMS 1911, visited 1909'.
'Photographs of this stone were submitted to the HER in November 2010. D Scott reports that there are cup marks at the base of the stone, but these are not evident on photographs'.
Not really in a wood though!
