Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Possible fallen standing stone. Although it is now lying prone, this stone may once have stood upright. It is almost two metres long, and is oriented SE to NW (the left and right ends, respectively, in this image); the two exposed faces are very flat in appearance (see 1256913). What may have been the hole in which the stone once stood is visible here, although now filled with water, on the right-hand side. As can also be seen in this image, there is a prominent straight line scored along the near side of the stone.

In the background, the town of Helensburgh is visible on the shore line, although partly hidden by the brow of the hill; further away, on the other side of the Gare Loch, the Rosneath Peninsula can be seen.
