Torhousekie Stone Circle View all content for Torhousekie

Strange anomaly in one of the stones here. It has a sort of 'hole' in its surface, revealing a chunk of crystally quartzy stuff. It tempted me to wonder if the whole stone was a big chunk of quartz, with a layer of something else covering the crystal. Admittedly not very likely, but an entertaining thought to mull over whilst moping about the stones in the pouring rain. Couldn't help but wish the HS enclosure fence was a bit larger, the poor stones seemed to be a bit hemmed in. But at least they're being looked after. If it wasn't for the gate, wheelchair access would be a doddle, being as it is, right next to the road.
