Unidentified cup marks

Does anyone know the Crinan/Tayvallich/Loch Sween area?
Whilst on holiday there this June, I found some cup marks which I can't find any references to anywhere!
They are roughly at NR765935 off to the right of the Ardnoe cycle route from Crinan heading towards Carsaig bay. There is a boardwalk leading to them. They are on Forestry Commission land, so they could have been made by forestry work I suppose, but I don't know why there's be a boardwalk leading to them if they weren't interesting!

Anyway, hopefully someone knows what I'm on about and can help!
Here are some (poor quality) photos I took:

The final photo shows some hollows in a rock by the shore of Loch Sween. I took them to be natural - does anyone know how they'd have been made? I don't think the water level reaches that high.
Thanks in advance for any help!
