Aikey Brae

 

How to get there: A92 from Aberdeen to Mintlaw, taking exit New Pitsligo A950.  Follow this road for 1.5 miles and turn left to Old Deer.  From there take B9029 towards Maud.  Follow the road for about 1.5 miles, turn left and follow this road up the hill.  At the the third sharp turn there is a grass track on the left.  Walk 200m along this track where there is a gate leading to a foot path and a clump of trees.  Follow the path through the trees to the circle.

Description: This is an elliptical circle of approximately 16 x 13 metres.  Only 3 circle stones,  the left flanking stone and the recumbent remain standing today.  There are still chock stones visible which would have kept the the recumbent in position.
