Kilry submitted by Nick
From Alyth take the B954 north until the road forks, signposted for Dykehead and Kilry. Follow this un-numbered road until you see Kilry School, a small building. There is a little cottage opposite, appropriately named "Standing Stone". There's not much in the way of parking here, and the road is very narrow. The stone is to the north side of the cottage down a private track - please ask befor

    At Kilry school, the house over the bridge of the Kilry burn was always known as 'Standing Stane'. How do I know? Because I lived there for a short while. I also lived in the house opp. the school and it was known as 'Step Ha' (Step Hall). When I lived there the stane was in the field over the burn. It always seemed to me to be very big but I'm sure it isn't all that big. Standing Stane house, Step Ha and the next house up the road, called Broom Ha were all owned by the Middleton dairy. We also lived in Broom Ha.

    My mother and father (Mr & Mrs Simmpson)are now resident at Standing Stone Cottage and welcome visitors to the stone providing they knock at the house first. Parking is available in the the driveway (and indeed is necessary as the road is narrow.
