St Bride's Ring is now largely overgrown in a wooded hill near Kingennie. It measured roughly 60 feet in diameter. Many of the large rocks which formed the 7 foot high wall lie below. St Bride's ring has been classified as a broch by some authorities. It is similar to some of the ring forts of central Perthshire.
