Standing Stone in Aberdeenshire
This standing stone is all that remains of a stone circle that was destroyed around 1800. It stands in the front garden of the west most of the two houses to the south of the Ballater road just beyond the 30mph sign coming out of Banchory.
The stone is some 8 feet high. It had a "post box" cut into it at some point (top right as you look at photo).
