Megalithic gatepost across the lane from the standing stone, there are other stones in the undergrowth here too. Could these be remnants of the possible lost circle?

Canmore

Information on Canmore suggests there may have been a circle here, or even a Clava cairn. Given the stone’s position in the Nairn Valley, close to the river and between the Clava cairns at Dalcross Mains and Cantraybruich, this doesn’t seem too implausible, but the lack of remains make it unlikely that we shall ever know.
