The Dervaig Stone Row is a prehistoric archaeological feature located on the Isle of Mull, near the village of Dervaig. This site, along with other stone alignments in the vicinity, dates back to the Late Neolithic or Early Bronze Age. The Dervaig Stone Row itself typically refers to an alignment of stones, with some still standing upright while others have fallen over time.
These megalithic structures are generally oriented in a NNW-SSE direction and are thought to have served a ritual or astronomical purpose for the ancient inhabitants of Mull, possibly related to tracking the movements of the moon or other celestial bodies. While the exact function remains a subject of archaeological study, they offer a tangible link to the island’s distant past and provide a sense of the prehistoric ceremonial landscape that once existed in the Dervaig area.
