Loanhead of Daviot

 

Site Map        D Henry, 1998

 

photo taken April 1998How to get there: tA92 from Aberdeen to Inverurie.  Take the final roundabout (signposted for Easter Aquorthies) but turn right.  Follow the road until Daviot.   Go through the village and turn right (signposted).  There is a small car park.  Follow the path up a gentle hill through the trees to the circle.

 

Description: This is my favourite recumbent stone circle.  It consists of 11 stones and is approximately 20 metres in diameter.  It is unusual in that almost the entire inside ofthe circle is covered in small stones.  Only a circular section in the middle is bare.  To the far side there is also a cairn.
