Most of the stone circles around that way have there stones set radially


Thats the first i've heard! But i'm prepared to be proved wrong.

The only one I can think of in the area off the top of my head is Guidebest. Is that a radial circle?





The stones at Guidebest are not set radially . With the exception of the Broubster and Stemster "horseshoes " those that are , tend to be further south e.g. Cnoc an Liath Bhaid .


Yes, the 'settings' (Broubster etc) are but B was talking about circles.




There's no doubt that some , but not all of the stones at Achinduich are not radial as at Cnoc an Liath Bhaid . Others in the area certainly conform to the more usual setting .


Cnoc an Liath Bhaid looks a great site.
