| Dunadd Standing Stone | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Scotland | Argyll | Visited | 19th Jul 2018 | 3 | 4 | 4 | Dunadd Standing Stone: This was an amusing visit to start off with. As we drew up in the car park, the “Tour of the Tor” minibus drew up behind us, along with the young couple we’d seen at Kirkmichael Glassary Rock Art yesterday. Other parties of walkers came along the path and marched off u... Read More |

| Dunadd Fort | Hillfort | Scotland | Argyll | Visited | 19th Jul 2018 | 3 | 5 | 4 | Dunadd Fort, with well, footprint, boar carving and cup marked rock: I confess to seeing this site 'from a distance' as the path was too steep for me to feel comfortable.

| Achnabreac | Standing Stones | Scotland | Argyll | Visited | 19th Jul 2018 | 3 | 3 | 4 | Stane Alane (Achnabreac), Lochgilphead Cemetery: The time was fast approaching when we needed to head back to Armadale, but there were still two more standing stones we wanted to see. Looking at the map, the quickest way appeared to be to drive to the cemetery, walk through the cemetery and walk a ... Read More |

| Achnabreck Stone | Standing Stone (Menhir) | Scotland | Argyll | Visited | 18th Jul 2018 | 3 | 3 | 4 | Achnabreck Standing Stone, Lochgilphhead: Continuing on down the track from the Stane Alane, we came across some new build houses, closely followed by some older ones, close to a road junction with a minor road leading from the A816 towards Auchoish Burn (so presumably the stone could also be driven...
