Full Description

Two large boulders lie on top of the stones that form the bank aligned NW from the broch. They lie immediately south of the track. To the NE of these are two more stones, tipped onto the flat grassy area of the camp field. It has been suggested locally that they form a "Druids table". It is suggested that the two on the bank can be used as a sighting line for the spring solstice. He stones are of a similar size to those in the stone circle to the SW. - HAW 5/2003

Two large stones/boulders reported by local people in scrub to NW of the broch. They think they might be significant.
Could be that position is fortuitous - HAW 1/2003
