Situated 250m S of Barnashalg on the E side of the upland Loch Dun Calltuinn, this stone is 3.5m high and 2.5m in girth at the base; lozenge-shaped in section with the longer axis NW and SE, it now leans slightly to the SW. The NW tip has broken off, but otherwise the stone rises with tapering sides to a pointed top. There are two plain cupmarks on the SE face at a height of some 0.77m with their centres about 30mm apart; the cups are 50mm and 70mm in diameter and 15mm and 20mm in depth respectively. Two small depressions slightly higher on this face are probably natural. At the centre of the N face, at a height of about 1m, there is a single cupmark 50mm in diameter and 25mm deep (Campbell and Sandeman 1964).
