Alternative Names of the stone are: 'Meall Rawer' and 'Shenavail Farmhouse'. It was found in grid ref NN 833 508, N. of the farm, and first reported in 1958 by J.G. Dunbar. The stone bears 13 cups, one ringed, on the displayed side. On the back it is marked with a latin cross. One edge is broken and the position of the cross suggets that it was carved after the stone was broken. The stone was donated to the museum in 1985 (Accession no: 1985.105)
