Ancient site in Argyll. This scheduled 1.5 metre high stone measures 1.1 and 0.2 metres at the base, the longer axis being aligned N-S. It is the sole surviving stone of a circle the site of which is said to be traceable when the corn turns yellow and the ring of the circle remains green for a longer period.
