Standing Stone (Menhir) in Aberdeenshire

In a field just to the North of the new bungalow of the same name is this small standing stone just over a metre high. There were Highland Cows in the field so I didn't venture in!

Acess to this site is easier than the OS map suggests: the dotted line which passes by the stone is actually a tarred road (with speed bumps), connected to public roads at both ends, so you can drive to within 100 meters of the stone.
