Visited 30th July 2004: Armed with insuficient notes and a grid reference I tried to find this circle. I found some stones that weren't conclusive, and subsequent research suggests that these are nothing to do with the circle.
So, where are the stones I was looking for? They're not exactly tiny, so how did I manage to miss them? I was searching to the south of the little road to Cuidrach, but I'm not 100% sure that's right. Hopefully someone else will have better luck than me.
The following text is an excerpt from the 1989 edition of Discovery and Excavation in Scotland (page 44) describing the circle:
Snizert Parish
NG386596 Stone Circle
Situated a third of a mile south of the Cuiderach road, and 20m SE of a telegraph pole at a height of c40m. Below a small knoll and in boggy ground is a circular setting of 4 upright and two recumbent stones. It measures 3.4m NE to SW and c3.2m NW to SE, with stones standing to a maximum height of 1.1m. Where no surface stones appear to indicate breaks in the circle, probing has located stones now buried at these points.
