East Blairbowie

Standing Stone / Menhir

drewbhoy Aug 9, 2009

This well weathered stone sits on the roadside near to East Blairbowie farm. It stands at 1.2 meters in height and has great views of Bennachie.

Leave the A96 north of Inverurie at the Balquhain/Chapel of Garioch junction. Look down into the valley and Balquhain RSC can be seen. Leave this road at next minor road heading south, marked Dubstone. The stone sits beside the first passing place on the west side.
