On the old road from Inverinate to Dornie, about 100 metres below the sheep fank which is about 300 metres before the viewpoint of Carr Brae, is a cup marked boulder some 1.8 metres long having a number of cup marks (but no rings), some well defined. The site commands extensive views south to the Five Sisters of Kintail and the South Kintail Ridge. A second boulder 2 metres uphill is shaped like a snake's head.
