(User Info | Send a Message) | There is a car park opposite the three stones on the B9134. There is also a car park just past the church for the churchyard stone. The latter is located in the church grounds between the church and the road. The GPS / Ordnance Survey grid reference on this page is for the 3 stones on the B9134. That for the Churchyard Stone is NO 5223 5555
Another stone was found by a local farmer during ploughing and is now held at the McManus Galleries in Dundee ( see the Megalithic Portal page for McManus Galleries for a photo of that stone).
At some stage it would be a good idea to split these sites between the B9134 three stones and the churchyard stone. However, there are lots of photos to rename if that is done. I don't have time to do that but maybe someone else would be prepared to do it?

(User Info | Send a Message) | | These stones are are very impressive to look at. However, they have been transported from there original positions and are no longer positoned upon energy leys (as far as I am aware). The most important megalithic site in the area is the vitrified hillfort on Finavon hill. It is quite likely that at least one of the stones was dislodged from the hillfort and transported to the roadside at Aberlemno. Whilst these stones are quite impressive and well worth checking out, I would advise the 'hidden landscape' tourist to go and check out Finavon Hillfort. |
