These two stones, plus the symbol stone a few metres away in the next square, are the remains of a stone circle. According to the 1:25,000 map the nearer one is called the Douping Stone, but I have not found any explanation of this. See https://canmore.org.uk/site/18882/brandsbutt for more information.
