Standing Stone (Menhir) in Isle of Arran

Climb over the farm gate beside the club house of the golf club of North Bairmore, go upwards the muddy slope then you will reach a green pasture. You can find this stone there.

You can easily find the standing stone and cairn of Dunan Beag in the wood on the left side of the pasture.
