Aquhorthies

Stone Circle

Fieldnotes

This pair of large stone circles (Auchquhorthies & Auld Bourtreebush) are clearly connected as they are little more than 200ms apart, but are definitely separate sites.

They're both rather a jumble of stones, but there is lots to see and enough large tall stones still standing to help the viewer reconstruct the scale and importance of these sites.

Didn't really enjoy it here, though. It may have been that there was a bull in the field.

Nice sea views!
