About Easter Aquhorthies Stone Circle
Its almost perfectly circular plan places Easter Aquhorthies Stone Circle early in the series of Recumbent Stone Circles. It is 19.5 m in diameter and consists of 9 erect stones: the red granite recumbent, 2 grey granite flankers, plus 2 massive blocks which form a reserved area in front of the recumbent. The West flanker has 4 cup marks on it.
The differences between this recumbent with its flankers and the other circle stones can be seen clearly in terms of their geological origin.
Limited on-site parking – road and parking area not suitable for coaches or buses.
