That's a great-looking stone. Very smooth-sided - do you know what type of stone it is? thesweetcheat Posted by thesweetcheat

Just checked the Highland Council Database and 'sandstone' aparently. The South East corner has lots of vertical and horizontal striations, but by the time you look at the top North West most corner it's all smooth and undulating. summerlands Posted by summerlands

That reminds me so much of Druid Auchencar.
