Access Denied?
Very kind of someone to provide this simple stile, but it has been rendered completely useless by the hawthorn hedge growing on the other side of it.

Auchmachar Recumbent Stone Circle (1)
This circle is extremely disappointing. Only a single stone still stands, and though the recumbent and a flanker are still in position, they are all but buried by the boulders cleared from the field and piled up on top of them along the dyke under the tree. Saddest of all is that many of these stones have been piled there relatively recently, since 1968, when an Ordnance Survey surveyor visited and photographed the recumbent setting. See http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/20746/details/auchmachar/ for details of this circle. Image]

This is the sole remaining stone of this circle. The recumbent and flankers are buried among the field boulders under the tree in the background. See http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/20746/details/auchmachar/ for details of this circle. Image]

Massive Boulders (1)
Although there are or were a long cairn, an ordinary cairn, and a recumbent stone circle in this vicinity, I don't think these are part of any of those. The circle is too far away for them to have been part of it, and they are much larger than the stones normally found in cairns. The ordinary cairn was quite close to here, but a Ordnance Survey surveyor found no trace of it in 1968, and you could hardly miss something this size.

Boulder Dyke
I'm not sure how effective this dyke would be in containing livestock, so perhaps it's not surprising that it is supplemented by a fence.
