Confusingly, although the information board describes this as a recumbent stone circle, it isn't a Recumbent Stone Circle. It is a circle composed of stones which, having (all but one) fallen over, are all recumbent, rather than a circle of the type found only further north and east, featuring a recumbent setting of recumbent and flankers. See https://canmore.org.uk/site/31955/balgarthno-stone-circle for more information. These are some of the stones on the north-east arc. Image]
