Stone Circle in Aberdeenshire

Only one stone remains of this circle with the rest having been removed in the early 1800's. The survivor is very close to the lane which probably explains its survival.

Canmore site no. 17039.

The stone that is left was originally in the middle of the field and much more of it was above ground.

The fact that part of the setting of the stone is an old vehicle tyre suggests that it is not in its original position
