Nether Largie standing stone
Date Added: 3rd Jun 2024
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Scotland (Argyll)
Visited: Yes on 3rd Jun 2024. My rating: Condition 3 Ambience 4 Access 3
Nether Largie standing stone submitted by caradoc68 on 18th Aug 2012. This standing stone is in the middle of a field, a short distance of the footpath. The farmer does not like you being there and might put a angry looking bull in the field to put visitors off. Cant find a lot written about this stone or why it seems to be leaning at 45 degrees and pointing to the southeast.

Timber support which features in most photos on Portal has now been removed, so the more southerly chamber looks even better.
Delightful location - the walk over the field feels more like a procession, with the chambers looking more impressive all the time.
