Gruline 2 submitted by cosmic : West stone from West (Vote or comment on this photo)
This impressive standing stone is situated within thick scrub and trees on the W side of the road from Salen to Kinloch. Now leaning to the ESE, it is aligned NNE and SSW at its base, which measures 1.2m by 0.4m; the stone stands to a height of 2.45m and tapers towards a pointed top.

Gruline 1 stands nearby to the east of the road.

Canmore site no. 22245.
