Standing Stones in Perthshire. 2 large slab-like stones stand 9' apart. The taller, westernmost stone is 7'2" high and tapers to a point, the other is 4'2" high and flat-topped.n They are aligned Nw-SE and showed the midsummer setting sun.
Note: Directions: Heading north on the A9 from Perth, turn off at Dunkeld. Follow the road into Dunkeld, crossing the bridge over the River Tay. Immediately after the bridge, turn right onto the A984. Approximately 2.5km along this road are the standing stones, just back from the road, on the left, and partially hidden by ferns. There is nowhere to stop immediately by the stones as they are close to a corner, but a few hundred metres further on there is space to park on the verge by the side of the road.
