Glassel submitted by hamish on 10th Oct 2005. This is a delight, I didn't read the description by Cosmic so got quite lost. I found an old railway track and scaled the enbankment with the help of saplings and eventually found it. The lighting was perfect.

Whitehill Stone Circle
Date Added: 29th Apr 2015
Site Type: Stone Circle
Country: Scotland (Aberdeenshire)
Visited: Yes
Whitehill Stone Circle submitted by cosmic on 4th Apr 2004. Whitehill in Aberdeenshire at NJ 643135 is Graded as ruined but recogniseable but still appears in his Guide to Stone Circles.
Recently the surrounding wood has been harvested so it can be seenin context.
Only the West flanker (about 8 fett 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.
