Shealwalls
Shealwalls submitted by hamish : I had just been to Park Neuk and thought I would try and find this circle. So drive past Newton of Bamff going towards the B954, there is quite a dip in the road. Park here and go through the gate on the left, follow the footpath to the right. At the top of the slope walk for about 150mtrs keeping a lookout to the right and nestled in the long grass is this little "four poster"?? There aren't any ... (Vote or comment on this photo)
Four poster in open ground to the north of the road southwest of Shealwalls farm.

Originally not on the OS Map, and nothing at the site that suggests a circle was ever there.

Hello Hamish.

Delighted to find this "unrecorded" four poster stone circle here. There is another just to the east of this one (in the same field) which is actually recorded as Shealwalls, Canmore Id : 31111, NGR: NO 23960 51500, named for the farm lying just to the NE.

Regards, Jamie.
