Beinn Bheag is a Bronze Age standing stone located in Ross-shire, Scotland, approximately 500 metres south-southeast of the principal site. The monument consists of a standing stone associated with cairns and the remains of shielings, which are temporary settlements used seasonally for pastoral activities. The standing stone itself dates to the Bronze Age and represents a significant marker within the wider archaeological landscape of the region. The presence of cairns alongside the standing stone suggests this area held ritual or ceremonial importance during prehistory, whilst the later shieling structures indicate the site's continued value for pastoral communities during the medieval and post-medieval periods.
