Balneilean
This Class I symbol stone was recorded in the mid-19th century built into the wall of the farm offices at Balneilean but the buildings have since been covered with a cement wash and the stone is considered lost although probably still in situ.
The stone is incised with a disc symbol containing three smaller circles, with traces of a possible Pictish beast below and to the right of it.
