Slightly to the north of the natural causeway to Eilean Garbh, popular with canoeists and campers, sits or has been re-seated is the standing stone ‘Cnoc Nan Gobhar’ – hill of goats. It stands a slightly over 1m tall, being much the same height as its near neighbour – a fence post.
The stone has been moved a few times apparently but luckily has been re-erected, a nearby hill with the same name has a cairn on its summit.
There are possible Ogham markings on the stone’s south side. Standing stones near the road seem popular on Gigha, I’d see a couple more later in the week.
