Tomnagorn

Stone Circle

Fieldnotes

This is a rather good recumbent stone circle.

Both flankers are there although the west one is broken and only a stump remains.

Particularly impressive are the remains of the internal ring cairn which is linked by slabs to the recumbent.

Access It would be possible to reach the site from Tomnagorn farm but there is a track from the road N of the site (to Bankhead) and this may be the preferred access route. Park at NJ654081, go down the track for 50m and then take the right turn. At the double fence, head uphill and to the right.
