Nether Largie South submitted by Fairycake on 26th Sep 2020. Looking towards the cairn from the south with the large cist in the foreground. This is by far the biggest cist I have seen. There are several inserted into earlier monuments near to here, apart from this, showing these sites continued to have significance over a long period of time.

Nether Largie standing stone
Date Added: 6th Mar 2023
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Scotland (Argyll)
Visited: Yes. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 5 Access 4
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.

Ormaig submitted by rockartuk on 18th Aug 2001. On the West slope of Creag Mhor (NM 8222 0267) you may find a magnificent series of over 200 carvings, many in 'mint' condition. They were recently (1973) uncovered. This is a detail of two of the three rosettes of different sizes. This realy cheers you up!
