Ferntower
Stone Circle
NN 874 226

This site is close to Monzie and is on Crieff golf course. We went the wrong way and ended up on a lane running across the course. If you drive out of Crieff towards Perth you will see the entrance to the club on the left, we turned too soon. 

This is a possible Four Poster but it might have been disturbed in the development of the golf course. The four stones are not large, being around 2.25ft (0.7m) high. 

 

 

The SE stone has a cupmark and a drill hole near it where it was attempted to blast it in the past. Almost 8m to the east are 2 stones, one is 2.4m high and the other is fallen and is 1.8m.
