Standing Stones
NR 828 976
These are easily reached from a signed carpark on a minor road south of Kilmartin. They are just 250m SE of Temple Wood circle and you can easily spend a day here visiting the cairns as well.
This is a complex alignment of two settings of stones, one with four stones and the other with five, and two pairs of standing stones stand to each side of them. They are aligned NE to SW and the two pairs of standing stones are about 100m apart with the settings inside. One of the pair to the SW has some cupmarks and is 2.8m high. The cows were exceptionally friendly and would not get out of the way to see them for most of the time!
