Full Description
A cup marked rock reported by Paul Young of Highland Ecology and Development Ltd. The information was forwarded to the HER by Lynn Fraser. <1>
John Wombell has visited the stone, following the above, and reports it to be "a very fine example" in "a most striking position". There are 43 cups up to c.150mm diameter and 3 of the larger cups have very eroded rings around them. A lot of turf was removed in order to record the stone but this was all re-laid. <2>
