Location Notes: The panel is situated at an altitude of about 270m asl in moorland and rough grazing on the SE facing hillside approximately 184m SE of Strath Sgitheach Balnacrae West (ScRAP 3036) and the abandoned settlement site, between a tributary of the burn (approximately 60m to the SW) and a plantation (approximately 50m to the NE). The ground around it is reasonably flat, with the hillside sloping gently down to the river. The site has wide views of the river and the landscape to the S, whilst Ben Wyvis lies on the northern horizon.

Panel Notes: The stone is almost rectangular in shape, measuring about 1.6 x 1.0m and rising to a maximum height of 0.2m. A slight ridge runs NE to SW across the stone. Sloping down from this ridge, on a slope of 9 degrees SSW, there are 4 cupmarks and an oval depression adjacent to the most southerly of the cups. The cups to the NNE are 7cm apart and both are 5cm in diameter. They form a triangular arrangement with a third cup to the S.
