Stone row by Dervaig C
The Dervaig C stone row (also called Dervaig SSE or Glac Mhor) is located south of the Kilmore stone row and south of Dervaig Cemetery on the northwest of the Isle of Mull in Argyll and Bute in Scotland .
The menhirs ( English Standing Stones ) the Isle of Mull are unique to Scotland, as they are often in rows ( Baliscate , Kilmore , Maol Mor , Quinish are arranged) of three to five stones.
The north-west-south-east oriented short Dervaig C-stone row lies in a pasture, on a ridge. There are three menhirs made of basalt , one of which acts in situ as a gate post and another stands in a field boundary. The stones are partly broken and have heights of 0.95 and 1.3 m. Earlier reports mention a fourth stone over a meter high that is missing today.
