Standing Stone, Crois Chnoca Breaca, Stoneybridge.

At Cnoca Breac, about 100 yards from the sea-shore to the west of the township of Stoneybridge, on the summit of a small mound about 6 feet high, is a standing stone facing the north-west with a considerable incline in that direction. It measures 6 feet 8 inches in height, 1 foot 4 inches in bread that the base, and 9 inches in thickness. It is shaped like a cross with one arm broken off, hence the name Crois Chnoca Breaca, but it is quite a natural formation. (Fig. 121.)
