NC27SE 37 28128 72028

This stone is situated on the summit of a ridge overlooking (to the SW) the public road that links a slipway on the Kyle of Durness (NC 3708 6603) to the lighthouse (NC27SE 3.00) at Cape Wrath. The pink granite pillar measures 0.25m from N to S by 0.2m transversely at the base, tapering to about 150mm by 50mm at the top at a height of 0.8m. It has been set into a natural crevice in the bedrock and is secured by at least two chock-stones.
