Location notes: This panel is part of the complex of monuments at Clava ('Clava cairns'), well known and much frequented by visitors. There is a car park and interpretation. It is located on a level river terrace to the SE of the river Nairn, in the flat bottom of the SW to NE valley. This panel is the westernmost of the orthostats forming part of the stone circle surrounding the SW cairn.
Panel notes: The panel is a rectangular slab of rough reddish sandstone, set upright, 2.0m high x 1.3m broad X 0.3m thick. There is a single cup, centrally placed, on the face which faces inwards towards the cairn, and some sub-circular natural hollows higher up on the same face.
