Description
Two standing stones stand 135m NNE of
Carnassarie cairn. One is 2.6m high and the other
2.65m high.
These two stones are situated on rough grazing land just SW of Carnassarie Castle. The site has not been excavated. Although close by to the forestry track leading to Old Poltalloch which is a public right of way, these stones are on private ground and permission should be sought.
