Stone Circle

drewbhoy May 19, 2009

Leave the A96 at Colpy and follow the Jericho road. Just outside the hamlet the circle would have stood on the way to the, long shut and ruined, distillery. The circle, as well as a cairn, was destroyed to make the road. Another sad end!

Driven past most weeks.
