The stones have a NESW allingment also. Fantastic location. I will post some pics later but here is one from Ancient Scotland web site.

There is some suggestion thst this was originally part of a long cairn.
Radiocarbon dating of charcoal found during an excavation in 1972 suggested a date around 3500BC.

A wee bit old for a modern wall!!!!

Rock on
