Pretty poor photo I’m afraid – you’ll have to take my word for it that there are several cup marks on this stone!

The northern stone

The two southern stones

Looking south. Does the nearest stone look upright to you?

Looking north up the row

Too muddy to cross the field today!

A little further down the field, there are the remains of many cairns. This is one of them, which I felt had been a kerbed cairn.

The Grey Cairn outlined against the sky, from the western hut circle.

It’s easily fifty feet long and around twenty feet wide.

As you can see, the cairn is pretty disrupted. I suspect half the dykes in this area have been built from stones robbed out of here.

Looking west across both hut circles.

This view of the eastern hut circle illustrates reasonably well why it might be mistaken for a stone circle.

A dreich day, as they say. George is the only spot of colour in the landscape.

Some idiot has been lighting fires in the centre...

Huddled beside the caravan...
