Druidsfield Standing Stones (5)
Image: © Anne Burgess Taken: 22 Oct 2015
Two stones stand just outside the fence round the farm yard, and these two on the bank higher up, overlooking the Howe of Alford. There is a suggestion that these two stones are the flankers of a recumbent stone circle, and that the recumbent was removed and built into the bank of the River Don. However the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historic Monuments of Scotland does not quite ratify this suggestion. See http://canmore.org.uk/site/17519/druidstone-druidsfield for further details.
