Standing Stones

Fieldnotes

Visited 13.6.12

Probably the most northern British standing stones I will ever visit
Easily spotted from the main A970.

The stones are red/pink coloured and covered in ‘hairy’ lichen.
There is a large flat stone lying on the ground between the two standing stones – a fallen stone?

One standing stone is about 1.5m high x 1 metre across.
The other is about 2.5m high x 1 metre across.

There is certainly a high concentration of stones / cairns in this small area.
