Location Notes: The panel is located on the S side of a ridge overlooking the River Sgitheach, with extensive views along this valley and beyond to the S and E to the Cromarty Firth and Black Isle. it is one of a group of 23 panels in a scheduled area SM4945, the outline of which used to be fenced and is still visible. This panel is about 20 m west of the chambered cairn (Canmore 12889) and is mentioned in the notes and drawings associated with that record.
Panel Notes: At the top of a 0. 7m high S facing outcrop the panel slopes gently down to the NNE. 5 cups form a curved row near the edge of the panel. The deepest cup is set back from the edge in a pronounced hollow.
Turf was removed from all but the very edge of the panel and was about 0. 1 m thick over the deepest cup. There are nine cups in total of which one is indistinct.
