Wow. Knocking stones eh?
Does anyone know what they're for?
I'm assuming that if they're relatively recent, there might be stuff written down somewhere.

Obviously, a hard nosed attitude would say that no parallels could be drawn between these potential reasons and the raisin d'etre of the older ones, but when I see the big newer ones that close to the old ones, it's tempting to think the connection runs deeper than simply proximity.

Cheers for those links and pics. They've increased my Kilmartinward yearnings :)

You should drop Paulus a line and get a copy of his article on the folklore of C&R's which includes these big bowls.
It's on the world wide internet somewhere and is excellent stuff.
Cheers for reminding me about plasticraft - shells & dried seaweed........it's long due a revival.
