Lamlash

Clearly visible on the east side of the A841 and marked merely ‘stones’ on the OS map, this circle’s five metres across, with an outlier stone about 20 metres south-east on an east-west axis.

Three grey stones about five foot high and stout, with a smaller fallen one and several tiny stones lying around, seemingly recent additions.

Goat Fell glowers down from the north and although we’re on a slightly raised bit of land here we’re still sunk just below sight of the immense bulk of Holy Island.

Directions: 100m south of the circle there’s a dirt road turn-off. Park here. From this point there’s a footpath up to Donan Beag and Donan Mor chambered cairns, a kilometre south-east of here in the woods.
