Whitehill in Aberdeenshire at NJ 643135 is graded by Burl as ruined but recognisable but still appears in his Guide to Stone Circles.
Recently the surrounding wood has been harvested so it can be seen in context.
Only the West flanker (about 8 feet tall) and a stone in the NW corner are still standing but the general shape is obvious from the fallen stones and the cairn inside.
