| Poldean menhir | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 25th Jun 2021 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Poldean menhir: Re-visited this stone whilst in the Moffat area. Not much has changed, except the weeds have been allowed to grow high around the stone. The area around its base has been heavily trampled, and was difficult to walk across. Two VERY large, very handsome bulls in the field of pastur... Read More |

| Chapman's Stone | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 25th Jun 2021 | 2 | 3 | 5 | Chapman's Stone: Again, our second stop of the day, and I'd remembered wrongly there was a stile which allowed access to the field with this stone in.

| Moffat Well | Holy Well or Sacred Spring | Scotland | Dumfries and Galloway | Visited | 25th Jun 2021 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Moffat Sulphur Well: I've described this location as 'good' because, as the well house itself is neglected and run down, the scenery around it is very pretty, and we enjoyed our visit.
Approaching the well from the small car park (having tripped over the low lying fence wire suspended 2 inches ... Read More |
