Beinn Ghobhlach Standing Stone
Beinn Ghobhlach Standing Stone submitted by andy_h : The standing stone between Little Loch Broom and Beinn Ghobhlach (Vote or comment on this photo)
Single standing stone on the lower slopes of Beinn Ghobhlach (The Horned/Forked Hill). The stone seems to be set in a raised mound.

An indistinct track leads from a wooden gate to the stone, which is only just visible from the single track road from Dundonnel to Badrallach.

The drive here is excellent with amazing views, steep rocky hillsides and every chance of seeing Buzzards at close quarters.
