Standing Stones in Isle of Mull
In 1957 a RCAHMS field inspector identified this as a row of three stones built into a wall but a subsequent inspector dismissed them as natural stones in an old wall.
Both Nicola Didsbury (see below) and I felt there was something worth photographing so make your own mind up.
