Re: Millhills by Anonymous on Wednesday, 31 March 2021
Hello,I typed in Millhills Stone Circle into Google maps,for directions to it.I followed the directions and ended up where it said the stones would be.I Google imaged this,but it directed me to another stone circle image.The images from Google maps show a red Virgin balloon in a field with trees.So I also aerial viewed using Google maps,and it shows the red marker point, in a bunch of trees in the middle of a field,just off the B8062,near Creiff. When I got there I searched this area thoroughly and I couldn''t find any Stone circle. I was disappointed and thought it would be a good idea to warn people ,before they set off out looking for them there.

We were unable to access the site, Google Maps stated we were 0.1 miles away (2 mins walking) but the location was pointing to a copse of trees in the middle of a planted field. We circled the field but there was no way to get to the center where the stone circle was reportedly located, we took a bearing from each side of the field and the location was always the same: in the copse of trees at the center of the field.

    Hello. Sorry to hear you couldn't find this four poster stone circle - it is so frustrating when you are looking for somewhere but aren't able to locate it, especially as you tried taking bearings. The same thing happened to me last week and again yesterday.

    I just happened to be checking on some Scottish sites when I spotted your comment so out of curiosity, I looked up the grid reference on Canmore to see if I could find anything to help you, see: Canmore ID 144836. They say that using aerial photography (1995/1999), "has revealed the cropmarks of a possible four-poster and pits amidst a group of cropmarks on a broad terrace on the E bank of the Pow Water 360m E of Dornock Lodge. The four-poster is visible a square setting 6m across. It is situated between the cropmarks of a palisaded settlement and a possible enclosed settlement".

    Entering the grid reference on UK Grid Reference Finder locates the grid reference just to the north of the copse. If the stone circle is only visible as cropmarks, you may be able to see it once the crop has been harvested.

    Thanks for letting us know. Another member or contributor might well be able to shed extra light on this?
