A 2018 trip to the Isle of Bute for today's #StandingStoneSunday
Ettrick Bay stone circle is situated on the left of the photo where the big tree is. Great location for a circle. Wonderful view to the Isle of Arran.
Chris posted a great photo of an old postcard of this circle last week

One of my favourites for #StandingStoneSunday
The wonderful Swinside stone circle. It was a fine walk over Black Combe to reach here. 10 years back, I'd love to visit here again one day.
I can't remember the name of this circle on #dartmoor from last year. Same weather as now - it was biblical seeing them solidify out of the mist #StoneCircle #StandingStoneSunday #silentsunday

Dhá Dhrom, Canfea, or the Ardgroom Stone Circle in the Beara Peninsula in Ireland.
Stone circles, dolmen, burial mounds and springs are important in my practice as places of power. These ancestral sites are tremendously powerful. These are the thin places, and by becoming still you can commune with the spirits of place. By honouring these spaces you step into the traditions of ancient humans, and you take your natural place as a being that is part of this great web.

A sunny 2011 visit to Old Keig recumbent stone circle in Aberdeenshire for today's #StandingStoneSunday
The recumbent stone is massive, thought to weigh over 50 tons and is the largest known of any recumbent stone circle. It was moved uphill from miles away to this spot.
Dawn at Castlerigg for today's #StandingStoneSunday

The Sighthill Stone Circle in the north of Glasgow. Consisting of a 4 ton central stone surrounded by 16 smaller one, this circle was created as part of a Jobs Creation scheme in 1979. The brainchild of Duncan Lunan, it's thought to the the first astronomically-aligned stone circle built in Scotlanf for around 3,000 years. Originally erected in Sighthill Park, it was taken down in 2016 and moved to its current location in 2019.
Show-site time for today's #StandingStoneSunday - Castlerigg at sunset, looking towards Causey Pike.
This visit October 2011.
The recumbent stone and flankers of the Midmar Kirk Stone Circle in Aberdeenshire, and the kirk, built adjacent to the 17m diameter circle in 1787, some 4,000 years after the circle was put in place. More pics and info: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/echt/midmarcircle/index.html
