Standing Stone / Menhir

drewbhoy Jul 24, 2023

Right next to the road, just north east from Glennan and its various sites. Fantastic stones, oh for the re-erection of the very tall fallen stone.

Plenty cairns nearby, so my feet will visit this area again in the reasonably near future.

What does this stone have in common with the Tay Bridge? They were both victims of the great storm

On the last Sabbath day of 1879
Which will be remembered for a very long time

At 5m high, was this the largest standing stone in the Kilmartin area? Now Kilmartin’s Grand Menhir Brisé.

this stone is found off the B840 Loch Awe road a couple of miles from the A816.The top part is broken off so it looks like a pointing finger.
