Standing Stones in Highlands. A pair of standing stones is located in garden of Kilvannie Manor in Blairninich. The western stone is 2,2 m high and is of roughly cuboid shape, it also has two significant cupmarks. The eastern stone is 1,6 m high and cylindrical.

Access to the western stone is easy, it is well-maintained and exposed in front of Kilvannie Manor. Unfortunately, the eastern stone is heavily overgrown and difficult to spot through the vegetation, however it has a metal protection around it.
