NR 461 537. This massive boulder of irregular shape is situated 80m NNW of the bridge that carries the public road to Ardtalla over the River Claggain. Measuring 1.8m by 0.8m by 1.2m by 0.9m at ground level, it is 1.7m in greatest height. Although it appears to have been deliberately placed in its present position, it is, nevertheless, in both shape and bulk, so uncharacteristic of the other standing stones on Islay that its antiquity is doubtful.
