The panel is situated 25m S of an E-W running overgrown track, on a gentle S facing slope, in a small clearing in dense woodland. Views very limited, without trees would be open to the SE. Rogie farm 71 is about 22m to the E. The numbering of the panels at Rogie is based on the NOSAS 2008 Survey of the archaeological remains of the area.
