**Horse Stone, Hill of Drimmie** submitted by dodomad : The Horse Stone, Drimmie nr.Blairgowrie. Standing at some point in the past, note chamfered base. I visited years ago when surrounded by trees. I vaguely recall there being a few shallow cup marks but I couldn’t see them this time. Photo Credit: George Logan @57seoras on Twitter (Vote or comment on this photo)

Standing Stone in Perthshire

An outlier of the Woodside, Hill of Drimmie stone circle. The horse stone is just a short distance from the circle by fence but be aware of the double barbed wire fence. The field often has cattle in it so caution is advised.
