Full Description

"Situated just below the crest of a low knoll above the south-western shore of Eilean Chalium Cille, this standing stone measures 0.3 x 0.9 metres, is orientated from north to south and stands to a height of 0.9 metres above the current ground surface. In profile it curves from the ground to form a gentle but definate point, and is slightly concave on its west side." (Burgess 2004, 82)
