(NM 9365 3369) Cup marked Stone (NR).

An isolated granite boulder is situated in rough grazing about 800 metres south of Kilmaronag and 18 metres SE of the track leading to Black Lochs. It measures 1.4 by 1.1 metres and stands 0.5 metres in height. On its sloping, upper surface are seven small cups, 25 to 40mm in diameter and up to 10mm in depth. Five of them are evenly disposed, running in a straight line down the centre of the stone. The other two are parallel to and almost opposite to the top-most pair of the line of five.
