If you take the road northwest through Dervaig to the end then head almost exactly north for a couple of miles along the private track (but public footpath) you get to these four stones. A few yards off the track, but very easy to spot. Three of the stones are fallen, and one of those is under the turf. The one that stands is a bit shy of 3 metres tall. The largest fallen stone is a metre longer.

As with almost anywhere on Mull, fantastic views!
