The stone circle has three recognised outliers which are all much closer than this one but it may have some link to the circle.
Update November 2019: For more information about the related stone row, visit the Stone Rows of Great Britain's entry for Loch Buie, which includes a plan of the row and its relationship to the other prehistoric sites in the vicinity (these include the stone circle and this standing stone). Also see the Loch Buie Stone Row in the 'nearby sites' list below.
