What is recorded here

A named place photographed at this map point in Na h-Eileanan Siar.
Likely dating to the Neolithic or Bronze Age, the stone may have functioned as a ritual or ceremonial object. The hole could have been used for inserting a wooden pole, as a symbol or calendar marker, or may be the result of natural erosion rather than deliberate design.
