Saturday, 4th May 2002

This three stone row is very impressive indeed. It is aligned SE-NW with the taller stone to the NW. This stone is 1.7m tall and 40cm to a side in plan. The other stones reduce in size with the smallest being around 1.1m tall and slightly thinner.

I am surprised that these are not mentioned more often as they are not too far away from Drumskinny stone circle and people must drive past regularly. There are steps into the field so I guess people must visit here, they just don't mention them.
