Full Description

Na Clachan/Stepping stones
An obvious set of stepping stones crosses the inlet about 20m out from the streams' first confluence with the sea. They are of a red stone quite different from the natjral variety outcropping nearby, and seem likely to have been quarried elsewhere and transported here, for unknown reason.
