Ask permission at the farm, parking is easy at the road end as there is plenty of room. Not visible from the road from Craignure, you can only see this heading south from Salen.
Set out on a low mound, with a couple of possible kerb stones still in situ, there is one upright stone (about 1.3m tall) and one recumbent here. The 'kerb stones' may in fact be other recumbents - it's a bit hard to tell. Have a look at the photograph and make your own mind up! The stones ...

As can be seen from the photograph, this field was occupied, so I didn't make an issue of it and took the bull's photograph along with the stone, which is over 2m in height and very slim.

Park at the Mull Pottery and take the track just north of the buildings which leads west up-hill. The stones are around 400m in, on a raised platform. There are 3 stones here, the centre one being recumbent. The northern stone is the larger, being just over 2.5m in height. The row runs roughly N-S, and the southern stone is well under 2m. The central recumbent stone looks as if it would have been the largest, it's around 3m long in its current position.
This is a p...

Log Text: This is not an easy row to get to. The nearest car parking spot is at NM 43350 52269. From here you can either head northward along forest tracks or head back into the village of Dervaig and walk along the road that leads beside Loch a’Chumhainn. When visited in 2016 I chose to walk to the row through the forest and returned alongside the loch. The route via the village is probably the easiest. A map and or reliable GPS device is essential or else the chances of getting hopelessy lost are high.

Log Text: Visited without doing research first. I was looking for two stones. The upright stone is easy to spot but the recumbent one is a bit more difficult. I did find a recumbent stone that looked about right, but it was not the right one. I suppose it is possible that there were once more standing stones at this spot, but the proximity of the cliff means that at least some of the large slabs are probably natural.

Lochbuie Kerb Cairn submitted by Nick on 2nd Nov 2003. Set in a group of trees around 100m NW of the stone circle, this rather ruinous kerb cairn still retains sufficient structure to make it worth a look. It is about 6.5m across, and has a 'false' entrance to the SE. The stones on the northern and southern arcs are still pretty much in situ.
