Location Notes: The panel is located on a sloping hillside which slopes towards the S. The location offers a clear view of Kilmartin Glen; Carnasserie Castle and an abandoned village are particularly prominent and visible. There is a cairn to the SE and a clearance cairn to the E. Near to the stone is an old, disused quarry and a possible abandoned sheep pen.
Panel Notes: The panel is dome shaped with a total of 16 cup marks, concentrated to the SW side of the stone. Scratch marks are visible along the very edges of the rock, if the turf is lifted. These do not appear to be glacial striations and after speaking to the land owner, she suspects it through farming techniques. Roughly, a quarter of the panel was covered in turf. There are 16 cups marks on the panel, these have been carved into three roughly parallel alignments, two of which have 5 cup marks, with an upper row of two cup marks. There is also a tight cluster of 4 cup marks at the W end of the panel.
