Follow the A94 through Scone towards Shianbank, take the small road on the southern side towards the house at the end of the track. The Circles are in the small wooded area in the fields. There are the remains of what looks like old WW2 bunkers beside the site, and a large rabbit warren! This is the NW circle looking west (Thanks to Nick for the directions).
