Penshiel Hill Stones

Cairn(s)

Martin Sep 29, 2001

Marked on the 1:25000 ‘Explorer’ map as a ‘Cairn’. Burl states that there may be a centre stone here and indeed in MacLeans “Standing Stones of the Lothians” he states that this site consists of four stones only a few inches above the ground in a diameter of around 45 foot with a large flat stone in the centre.
