There are 24 definite cups (and possibly as many as 32 cups) measuring from 6cm to 19cm diameter and from 2cm to 9.5cm deep (carved or ground into rock). They are distributed over an area 6m long by 2m wide, along a shoulder of rock just below high water mark.

They were drawn to our attention by Mr Norman MacLeod of Leverburgh.
