A quick cache and dash located along the busy A985 near the standing stones.
The standing stones according to folklore are said to mark the graves of chiefs who fell in an alleged battle here and once held some sacred meaning back in the Bronze Age. The largest of the stones stands some distance from the other three stones and reaches a height of 2.70m and measures 1.40m wide by 0.50m thick. The stone is deeply weathered with a number of perpendicular grooves running vertically. The narrow faces of the stone are aligened north-east and south-west.
Parking is available in the nearby lay-by adjacent to the stones. Bring your own pen
