Standing Stones, Maol Mor
Standing Stones, Maol Mor
The Maol Mor standing stones, alternatively known as Kilmore or Dervaig A, are situated immediately to the south of Maol Mor hill summit at about 130m OD.

The stones are a scheduled monument (SM10859) which consists of an alignment of four monoliths, aligned NNW/SSE and 10.4m long (the spacing of the stones is variable). The northernmost stone lies prostrate and measures 2.45m in length by 0.85m in width; part of its base has been broken off. The three other stones are upright and stand up to 2.2m high and are a maximum of 1.2m wide.

The monument dates to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age (around 2000 BC).
