NR 7827 9068, unknown site I found that looks like a Stone Circle that's not on the map or Google Earth. 

Next to the road on a raised bit of ground in a clearing in the forest. Two stones still stand, did count another 8 under the grass.

(See the main site page for more details on this site)

You i did very intresting, but was a bit scating an un able to take much details down about this site got to go back to kilmartin to take more details down about these monuments.

SORRY ANDY made a mistake on this one. This is not what's left of a stone circle but in fact a Enclosure called Loch Coille-Bherr and is of uncertain date and function.

Good find that I didn't know about. It appears by the Canmore references that it took in Burl, Thom and possibly Ruggles as a stone circle so you're in good company. A nice one for completists as it's in the classic 1980 paper "Megalithic rings: plans and data for 229 monuments in Britain"
