A day that started with the superb Galleried Dun at Druim An Duin ended up at the Rowanfield Standing Stone. From Kilmartin I took the A816 south then the B8025, signposted Crinan / Tayvallich. Take the first minor road heading west, then take the first farm track at Fasgadh, just before Mheall Cottage. Plenty room to park at a now defunct quarry. Follow the track uphill until a clearing, the standing stone is straight ahead. It stands at 2.6m high. If the trees weren't there it's a fair chance you could see down into the Kilmartin valley. A nice way to finish the day. Visited 04/04/2023. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink

Rowanfield (Cist) — Fieldnotes

From Rowanfield Standing Stone head north to next small clump of trees, a short easy walk. The capstone is over 2.3m long by 1.3m wide, it has been moved to reveal the north end slab is missing. More cists to come on the same day. Visited 12/04/2024. Comments (0)  |  Add a comment  |  Permalink
