A close as you can get on the south side.

Tp the south east, the monument to Lord Colonsay.
On the other side, not so much gorse.
The gorse is doing its best to hide the stone.
From the standing stone south of the B8085 I headed back, north, towards the church, crossed the road and walked past the hotel on the track heading towards the aptly named Turraman Loch. Long before the well named loch head west, following a fence, at Scalasaig Farm. A short walk of no more than 100m awaits.
Thanks to the gorse I spied the stone when I was directly below the site. (You can see the top of the stone from the B8085.) Luckily you can get to the stone via some clearings.
It is an impressive stone standing at 2m high and 2m wide. The smaller stone in the Canmore photos is still there.
Towering over me to the north west is Dun Eibhinn, a decent climb ahead.

Very decent photographs of the site with less or hardly any vegetation.
