Description

The monument comprises a standing stone of prehistoric date, visible as an upstanding monument.

The monument was first scheduled in 1930, but an inadequate area was included to protect all of the archaeological remains. The present rescheduling rectifies this.

The monument lies about 130m WSW of Westhaugh of Tulliemet at about 60m OD. The stone, which is known as Clach Glas or the Grey Stone, is slab-like in form. It is c.1m wide by 0.3m thick and stands approximately 2m high. There are two cup marks on its E face. The monument probably relates to ritual activity of Neolithic or Bronze Age date.

The area proposed for scheduling comprises the remains described and an area around it within which related material may be expected to survive. It comprises a circle 10m in diameter, as marked in red on the accompanying map.
