Hilton Of Moncrieffe

Standing Stone / Menhir

nickbrand Dec 8, 2003

This stone is now recumbent, lying a few metres from where it once stood on a patch of rough ground and gorse. I spoke to the farmer, who said it had been moved there after it fell some number of years ago, and he is currently musing about re-erecting it. It would stand around 8 feet tall if he does so, it’s a fairly solid piece of whinstone!
