Taking the A926 east from Alyth, through Ruthven and the village of Airlie, it is immediately visible to the right, highlighted against the sky. There is a convenient farm gate nearby, which can be parked in short term.
Note: Human remains found in Bronze Age pots as stone base is excavated for re-erection, due to happen on Friday.
