This is a good contender for the title of 'smallest standing stone'.
Or mebbe not. Could it actually be a giant stone, over 6ft tall buried in the peat so that only the tip is showing? Well, OK, fair enough, probably not.
It is fairly close to the road, with only a small wire fence to hop over, and there's a cairn about 80m to the NNW. So at least that's something.
According to RCAHMS, this diminutive stone is in an old churchyard. I didn't notice any sign of a church, possibly the traces are buried in the undergrowth, but it's interesting to see a church with a standing stone and a cairn. Nice inference of continuity.
