Location Notes: The panel lies on a S and SE facing open grass/moorland area overlooking the multi-period landscape of Learable, and Strath Kildonan beyond. It is about 12m S of a substantial stone and earth bank, and 25m SW of the W most tree. The panel Learable Hill (Canmore 6717, ScRAP 267) and stone circle is 40m to the NNE, and a clearance cairn lies about 30m NNE.
Panel Notes: The panel is a flat-topped oval boulder of gneiss 2.1 x 1.2m with a maximum height of 0.8m. The top (carved surface) slopes gently to the SE, and the ground falls away to the S, leaving a pronounced overhang. The carved surface is weathered and cracked. There are 20 cups, all in the S half of the panel, and two elongated 'cups' on the SE edge which respect the grain of the rock and may be natural.
