Tealing Stones
Tealing Stones submitted by Nick : Take the A929 north from Dundee towards Tealing. Turn off before Tealing at Tinkletap, and park in the yard (ask permission). Take the track north to the old shed, then west towards another track running SW/NE. 50 metres NE up this track the stones lie up on the left. This pair of stones is not very impressive, with no cup marks or rings visible, but the view from their location is fine. (Vote or comment on this photo)

Tealing Stones
Tealing Stones submitted by hamish : This is the smaller stone, it was completely covered by cut down gorse bushes when I arrived. I tried to pull them off but they were too heavy.

Tealing Stones
Tealing Stones submitted by hamish : This is the large stone seen edge on. The ambience of the site has diminished by the local farm piling cut gorse bushes over the stones.

Have recently visited the Tealing Stones, and noticed just above the area on the hill top to be a cluster of large stones. This reminded me of a Hill fort or Clachan, I wondered if anyone had any info or ideas ?
