pawel visited on 7th Dec 2019 - their rating: Cond: 5 Amb: 4 Access: 5 Visited on 07/12/2019. The site is well-maintained, grass cut short and easily accessible even on a wheel chair. Easy to find, just follow google map. There is a space to park a car right at the entrance to the site. Site is next to a farm and surrounded by a farm and pastures. It was a peaceful visit.

Cullerlie boasts an outer ring of standing stones inside which are seven small burial cairns. It has been partially renovated and is very impressive.

Cullerlie submitted by bobs : Small, but perfectly formed, stone circle which encloses 8 small cairns, each ringed by kerbstones. These were used for cremated burials. Sorry about the people in the photo, but at least they demonstrate just how tiny this circle is. Grid Ref: NJ785043 (2 comments)
