Eyre (gd|Eighre) is a settlement on the eastern shore of Loch Snizort Beag on the northern coast of Skye in Scotland.[1]
The two Eyre standing stones (gd|Sornaichean Coir' Fhinn) are situated next to Loch Eyre.[2] It is said that there was once a third stone here, although there is now no trace.[3]
