Stronach Standing Stone
Stronach Standing Stone submitted by valters_grivins : Arran primary school standing stone. It was the first megalith we saw in our Arran trip. I guess moving litter bin some 10 meters away from the stone would be good option... October 2nd, 2010. (Vote or comment on this photo)
