This lovely little four poster seems to be slowly disappearing into the marsh, wellies an essential in anything other than good weather

Bagbie Four Poster

Stone Circle

GLADMAN Jun 1, 2010

Standing right beside the Bagbie Cairn, this excellent little Four Poster is a great little site to come and chill out at, perhaps following a trek to see one of the other stone circles in the vicinity?

I was lucky enough to experience a golden evening here, with nothing but sea birds from nearby Wigtown Bay as company. Noisy little blighters, so they are....... A large monolith is visible in the field beyond a tall drystone wall, the rather unusual cairn completing a fine mini prehistoric ritual complex upon this obscure hillside. Obscure, yes, but that’s just the way I like ‘em.

Dumfries and Galloway? Bring it on!

The cairn and standing stone at Bagbie are both marked on the 1:50,000 O.S map but not this little four poster that stands next to the cairn.

A great little circle in a bleak moorland area with excellent views.
