NN95SE 15 c. 989 507

See also NN94NE 7.

(Area: NN 989 507) About 1 1/4 miles NW from the station at Guay, and a little way from the steadings at Kilmorich in a field to the NW, is a standing stone, 4'8" high and 3'7" broad along its southern face. It is visible from the road.

F R Coles 1908.

Listed in Appendix I are references to standing stones at NN 987 513 and NN 984 483, both of which appear to be mis-sitings. The first probably refers to the cross-slab NN95SE 6, as it is within 300m of it. The second, although listed at Kilmoraich, is sited at least 1 1/4 miles S of this place. Thus, it would appear that there is an unlocated stone in the vicinity of Kilmorich as described by Coles.
